Road level sounds to me like how high it is. Or on which level in a complex crossing with fly-overs and stuff. Beside that, would it be a problem to add a key for generic road classification while still keeping the old values? Users could use the generic classification by preference, and default

I hereby propose a new tagging scheme. highway=primary ... tertiary deprecated. highway=road road_level= where values correspond to 0=trunk, 1=primary, 2=secondary, 3=tertiary etc. highway=motorway and other special tags (pedestrian, footway, service, track, path, living_street etc.) would still

Re: [Tagging] Is it possible to have highway=unclassified with ref tag?

Reminds me of an earlier career where I sometime had to deal with sensitive documents. All documents had to classified: “Top Secret”, “Secret”, “Confidential”, etc. But if a document did not require clearance to access it was classified as “unclassified”. Basically anything that was not

+1 with Tod Fitch. The OSM/UK road types are relevant in the UK, but need to be translated for use elsewhere. On 08/05/18 04:53, Tod Fitch wrote: I sometimes think those of us who speak a dialect of English other than that of the UK should simply view tag values as “code words” and not worry

Re: [Tagging] Is it possible to have highway=unclassified with ref tag?

Dave ... careful with the use of logic where OSM tagging is concerned. The road values come from the UK system, and need to be adapted to other places. So 'unclassified' may be translated to some type of road in another part of the world that could carry a reference. On 07/05/18 22:02, Dave

The topic is the classification of OSM is not the same as countries have, and this make troubles. An UNCLASSIFIED road as its name says it is unclassified...but when you need some road classification with a step more than tertiary then you use unclassified, and if the road has ref...you put in

But when a highway has an officially assigned ref doesn't that define it as "classified"? I don't have a large stake in this discussion but it would seem to me that any road so ranked by the authorities should not be tagged as unclassified. My 2 cents Dave On Sun, May 6, 2018 at 12:19 PM,
