 What, in tagging a way, indicates on which end of it is the dead end?  (I

omg, all ends (last node) not connected to another highway are surely
dead ends when the tag is present :-))
(and the tag is confirming that we are not a mapping to be continued
case)


 What does happen when the way is split or unsplit?


Well, if the tag is present when both ends are connected (e.g. after a
split), then it's a bit strange but it's not harmful. Routers ignore this
tag anyway. And QA tools are only checking the case where the last node is
not connected (and nearby another highway).


 Will a normal contributor understand what he's dealing with if he sees
 noexit on what he splits?


I think most of the contributors should not care about this tag. Only
people using QA tools supporting the tag for false positive would really
use it (like OSMI, routing view). But if the average contributor use it in
their cul-de-sac, why not. He's just informing next contributors that it's
not an incompleted highway but really a cul-de-sac.


 In fact, is it the way or is it the highway? Just a segment or more
 and up to where?


It's all about highway ways. (If it's connected to a building way, you
could add a building=entrance on the connection node I guess)

[Tagging] access=designated - what do we think it means?

2014-04-11 Thread SomeoneElse
Currently, there are 41,000 things tagged access=designated (1).  I can 
understand what =designated means for a specifc transport type (foot, 
bicycle, etc.) but not access.  The wiki (2) also doesn't know.


What do we think that someone means when they tag something as 
access=designated?


Cheers,

Andy

I always assumed it was for street where traffic is allowed for residents or 
delivery, but not for traffic passing through.
Never read this wiki page, though.

iD allows to easily add only a general access=designated (while JOSM
not), for example.

Potlatch also allows a general access=designated
The tip/help message is Permitted, according to signs or specific
local laws for designated.

From what I see the problem are the editors that are allowing this.
People are using acess=designtated with the same meaning as
access=yes (ie, it's allowed to use the highway)

I have always understood it to mean access to certain vehicles/people.
The it will be what is shown on a signpost, in fact I was expecting the
road after Fairholmes to be motor_vehicle=designated as blue badge
holders can use it.

The wiki does know:

All access=designated tags should be removed.

It seems that January 24th 15h40 is a little older than 2 hours.
And quotting this sentence in the wiki is not exaclty quotting this thread.
