typically these plans get modified during the process (sometimes during 
construction), and these modifications can be anything significant like 
alternative route, bigger, smaller, not built at all etc. The process sometimes 
takes decades, so it is also natural that these modifications occur and 
sometimes are drastic

Yea, thats true - There are some freeways in California that have been proposed 
for 50 years! California has a plan for their freeways (with money behind it) 
out to about 2030 or so (maybe to 2050, i think) - and those old ones still are 
not on the list to be built. 

Tokyo has the ring tollways being built now (actual construction) with the last 
pieces of some rings linking smaller roads in the planning stages (planned to 
be built, but exact routing is unsure), set for completion by 2020 or so. 

Ill have to move those pieces from proposed to planned, as they are actually 
planned. 

But poor 125 in California will have to stay as proposed

Personally I don't think we should routinely display proposed routes,
because they may never come to reality, but planned routes are ones
that have passed the usual planning discussions and are awaiting
construction, which can sometimes be many months or years, but will
happen, short of a political change of heart.

I think there's a fairly objective criteria that can be used to distinguish 
'planed' from 'proposed' : if the financing has been completed (money has been 
set aside in the budgets and will not be used for something else), then it fits 
the osm definition of planned.

There was some amount of tagging for the renderer shortly after the railway 
rendering changes, but it didn't last long (that i could see) and we now have 
better, more finegrained data. The same would hopefully happen with 
planned/proposed, especially with a clear criteria and less historical 
confusion.

[Tagging] highway=crossing/crossing=traffic_signals

2015-07-14 Thread Dave F.

Hi

The predefined options for a pedestrian road crossing that shares it's 
location with a set of traffic lights in P2, ID  JOSM is 
highway=crossing  crossing=traffic_signals: 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1353800523


And yet it doesn't render in mapnik. Is this intentional or an 
oversight? If highway is changed to traffic_signals it renders but ruins 
the concept of sub-tag keys relating to their parent's value.


It's not like it's a rare occurrence: 
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/highway=crossing#combinations


I think this should be included in a future update of mapnik carto's. I 
suggest a traffic light icon with a different colour icon. I note the 
default French render with 'zebra' lines but that doesn't indicate any 
lights are used.


Cheers
Dave F.

This is a question of language.

The OSM life cycle discussion 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Lifecycle_prefix
lists planned as duplicate of proposed. I would agree with that.

As a map user I always like maps that look ahead and show planned roadways, not 
only those where you can already see the construction work going on. 
This has the added value when you plan a trip, that you would be alerted to 
possible problems (in case the local mappers missed the transition from 
planned to construction). I would tend to suggest that we keep the Proposed 
and Under Construction objects visualised with different representation.

If you're going to decide to not render highway=proposed then just 
make that decision - if you render planned instead, people who want 
their pet schemes to be rendered will just change proposed to 
planned and carry on as before, just as when abandoned railways 
somehow magically became disused when abandoned was no longer 
rendered.  Some of the proposed highways* are clearly just flights of 
fancy with no timescale or money behind them.  Unlike with abandoned 
railways, there's no dirty great scar on the ground to see, so they're 
not easily verifiably either.


Cheers,

Andy
