[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Reversible lane (tidal flow)

2012-03-26 Thread Martin Vonwald
Hi!

This is a follow-up proposal for the :lanes proposal. I suggest the
introduction of a new key to tag all kinds of reversible lanes:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/reversible_lane

Your comments are welcome.

A center turn lane is not a reversible lane (and reversible_lane=median 
says to me that there's a movable median barrier).

I took the notation from the wikipedia page linked in the proposal. On
the discussions page there is already a thread about the key name.
Maybe two_way_lane fits better.

Martin

P.S: Please use the discussions page of the proposal for comments.

I don't know why Wikipedia groups them, but it at least doesn't say that 
a center turn lane is a reversible lane.


http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/htm/2009/part2/part2b.htm#section2B24
Two-Way Left Turn Only (R3-9a or R3-9b) signs (see Figure 2B-6) should 
be used in conjunction with the required pavement markings where a 
*non-reversible* lane is reserved for the exclusive use of left-turning 
vehicles in either direction and is not used for passing, overtaking, or 
through travel. (emphasis added)

2012-03-26 Thread Martin Vonwald
It seems to me, that two-way lane is more widely known for this. So I
changed the key to two_way_lane. I also changed the value reversible
to tidal_flow (british english)

The proposal is now located here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/two_way_lane

Thanks for pointing out!

[Tagging] Proposal on a key page?

2012-03-26 Thread Andrew Hartley
hello,

while reading the reversible proposal i stumbled across the centre turn
lanes proposal. this proposal was written on a key page instead of a
proposal page. is this a mistake or is there any reason for this?

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:centre_turn_lane

But a two-way lane is not the same. A one-lane two-way road has a single 
two-way lane. A reversible lane with a moveable barrier is a one-way lane.

I created it there because the purpose was foremost to explain existing 
tagging. Hence it's not proposed, since multiple mappers already use it.

are you sure about this? according to taginfo (
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=centre_turn_lane) there are 4
users who ever touched a way with this tag. currently there are 796 ways
with this tag. and according to your history (
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/10936901) you changed this
tag on 780 ways about two weeks ago.

i recommend moving this proposal to the proposed features. especially as
two other proposals exist which cover more or less the same issue.

Well, that's because I recently changed center_turn_lane to 
centre_turn_lane.

This is an important thing to map. 

I have been looking at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Addresses and it 
seems that the key addr: is used on each and every single address. an example, 
the addr:street isn´t used on the street but on the surrounding buildings that 
uses that street in their adress. with a similar approach, 
addr:reference_point would be used on all houses having the railway station 
as a reference.

My conclusion is that you should not use addr: for this tag. I suggest to use 
only reference_point=yes or reference_point=address.

Maybe there are other uses for reference_points, what first comes into mind 
are the survey points: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%

We have already to relation types (street [1] and associatedStreet [2]).
Why not adapt/extend/rework them ?

 My conclusion is that you should not use addr: for this tag. I suggest to use 
 only reference_point=yes or reference_point=address.

it fits well under addr:*

[1] https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:street
[2] https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:associatedStreet
