[Tagging] How to tag an imaginary oneway barrier

2014-02-01 Thread Pee Wee
On the Dutch 
forumhttp://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=394396#p394396there
is some discussion on how to tag a common situation.
It is about a street that has no traffic sign on one end (side A) and a C6
sign http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nederlands_verkeersbord_C6.svgon
the other end (side B) .  Ofcoarse it is not allowed to enter this
street by car from side B. If you enter the street by car from side A you
are allowed to drive all the way. But you are even allowed to drive to
(lets say) half way and then return. In other words... this is not a oneway
street for motorcars. This makes the traffic sign a more or less imaginary
oneway barrier.

Let's for simplicity's sake asume the implication of the sign is
motorcar=no,  how should this be tagged?

The direction of the OSM way is from A to B. The options that were
mentioned on de forum were:

1 Cut the way where the sign is and use a relation type :
restrictionhttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:restriction.

2 Add a node on the way where the sign is and add a motorcar:backward=no to
this node. (similar to
traffic_sign:forwardhttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Traffic_sign#As_part_of_a_wayon
a node that is part of a way)
3 Cut the way where the sign is into a tiny piece of way.  Add a
motorcar:backward =no  to this tiny piece of way.

Hi!

2014-02-01 Pee Wee piewi...@gmail.com:

 3 Cut the way where the sign is into a tiny piece of way.  Add a
 motorcar:backward =no  to this tiny piece of way.


That variant has been used in my area. The tiny piece is usually the part
from the junction up to where the sign is located.

Best regards,
Martin

1 seems the best representation, 2 is not working because a node has no 
direction and for 3 I'd rather use oneway=yes instead of motorcar:backward=no.

But rather complicated I'm afraid


 2 is not working because a node has no direction

If a node is part of a way (which has a direction) a router should have
enough information to conclude in which direction there is a motorcar=no.


 and for 3 I'd rather use oneway=yes instead of motorcar:backward=no.


It is not a oneway street and if you want to make it one I'd rather use the
oneway:motorcar=yes/-1  (depending on the direction of the way)

That's a good point. How would you distinguish between a bag shop and
a leather shop? For example, how would you tag French 'maroquinerie's?

Normally traffic signs belongs to the road to the next  
intersection/crossing. Let's look how we tag maxspeed: From the sign to  
the next sign/intersection/crossing the whole way. So if you come from a  
residential-driveway or by a u-turn, you can't see the maxspeed limit and  
you can't drive conform to it. So should we tag the maxspeed also at a  
very short section? (Router and other software has to must expand the  
maxspeed to the next intersection.)


I suggest it is better to add No. 3: motorcar:backward=no
The sign is there by a reason, and motorcars should not go to this  
road/direction. So OSM-data can give a person/software a bit of more  
information to show that the road/direction is not allowed (even but  
from beginning).

That depends on the country - different jurisdictions have different
conventions. In the UK the sign's effect is often until further
notice, i.e. until there is another sign telling you differently. It
doesn't automatically get nullified at the first side road like it does
in many countries.

Which is oneway but for some reason it wasnt't marked as such. If 
there's a true oneway street with proper signage, it's actually obvious 
from both ends (just consider the signs specific to oneway case) so you 
cannot miss it and u-turn. This non-oneway case is no different from 
=destination or a turn restriction in which only a particular route is 
forbidden, not the actual traffic on the road.

Are there some real world examples where a maxspeed for opposing direction 
is really different? (Signage bugs don't count or short sections that 
occur due to sign placement).

[Tagging] TMC proposal - RFC

2014-02-01 Thread Manuel Hohmann
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi everybody,

I would like to propose the following tagging scheme for Traffic
Message Channel (TMC) locations. This data is used to locate the roads
and places to which traffic messages apply. See here for a description
of TMC and the available data:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/TMC
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/TMC/Location_Code_List
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_Message_Channel

See here for an overview of the location code tables for a few countries:

The plan of the overall proposal is as follows:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Relation:tmc

This proposal is in fact a collection of several independent
proposals. Each proposal should thus be treated separately. The first
stage of the proposal can be found here:

http://goo.gl/maps/H49dF on cycleway going down the hill. Note that it is 
possible count this entire traffic interchange as a giant traffic planning bug 
(especially cycleways).

I encountered the same for cars, in Poland in mountainous areas very, very, 
very rarely there is a maxspeed for downhill direction without anything in the 
different direction.

C3

Sign C1 means one-way
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#C1.

C1

The difference is that the driver facing C1 is told that he can drive
round the block to enter the street while that there is no hope to do
so in case of C3.  This sounds very sound.

I think it's a European rule and so, that, from a European perspective,
it's a Road Administration error to place a C3 signal at only one end
and hence that OSM shouldn't try to map signaling errors.

From a pure logical point of view  This signs tell you that you cannot
enter this street, but that you may go round the block and that, if
you're lucky enough, you may find no sign there. In that case, you may
come back here through the other end and U-turn right behind this sign
just as if it did not exist.  Good luck. sounds kinda funny.  But maybe
only to me.

The 4th option is to use turn restrictions on the crossing where the

They have to use their memory. The legal basis is also often different.
There is often (it depends on the sign/restriction) a Traffic Order
which says something like the road from A to B is now 30mph maximum
speed and prima facie you are committing an offence if you disobey the
order whether there are signs or not. However you can defend yourself in
court by saying the signs were absent, hidden, confusing etc. So the
highway authority has to be reasonable about putting up signs, and it is
your problem if you miss one. In NL at least the offence is created by
the sign itself, so no sign = no offence. 

By the way, diving off-topic for a second, their memory is not tested as
much as drivers on Dutch motorways. You may have to have a stack of up
to 5 speed limits at any one time. Imagine encountering the following
signs, in order: 

1) start of motorway - class of road says it is 130 

2) static sign says it is 120 

3) static sign also says it is 100 between 0700 and 1900 

4) temporary static sign says it is 90 (e.g. for roadworks) 

5) overhead displays say temporary speed limit is 70 (e.g. for
congestion ahead) 

6) in the course of the traffic jam you see a temporary static sign at
the end of the road works which says end of 90 limit (black circle,
diagonal bar, grey 90 visible) 

7) overhead displays say end of restriction (circle with diagonal bar)


What is the speed limit after sign 6 (the time is 1859)? And after sign
7? And why is everybody suddenly overtaking you? 

There is a catch at point 7) - end of restriction on overhead displays
now only cancel limits from overhead displays. So is the limit after
sign 6) 100, or 130?
