1) If we can agree that this is needed, I believe it can be built. We would need to first agree on a notation (wiki is not machine readable), but the rest should be fine. Worst case scenario is having a system that takes a planet.osm file and "expands" it, resulting in a separate server with period

I believe that you haven't explicitly said so, but probably essentially want to be able to find streets that haven't been surveyed and potentially need a oneway tag and avoid false positives (aka such that are actually bi-directional). I don't believe you'll get any further with the oneway tag, bu

For the sake of discussion, I believe the interface for setting this attribute could be different (I am a software developer). For example, in graphical interfaces like iD you could have "no" preselected as convenience. But if you send "no", you are saying "no". Otherwise, you could opt-out and le

Hi Xavier, "no" is the "default" value of the oneway tag as it's the most correct assumption. First as in general most roads are not oneway roads (considering any road inside and outside of cities), and second as the other case around would be even worse: If "yes, this is a oneway street" would be

Hi, The default value for "oneway" is "no" for most types of roads. That is, if the attribute has no value set, "no" is assumed. Which is the rationale for that default? In the European cities and towns I know the majority of streets are one-way. For example Barcelona, or Madrid, or Paris. In suc
