In this the disabled is a group, i.e. a mode of transport as the

otherwise some areas would get access=disabled;seniors;pregnant ,
which is awkward.

Also the list of different access tag's values should already be
comprehensive, various user group restrictions are subtypes of the
values that are already described. Some of the values that one can see
in taginfo in use now, could be better described with the
access:conditional= syntax, such as access=dry_weather_only with
access:conditional=yes @ (dry_weather), and many of the values with
some hundreds of uses are plain mistakes, like access=bus (that's
likely
vehicle=no + bus=yes).

Re: [Tagging] New Key capacity:*=n values

TL;DR:

capacity=* (and access=*)  need to better match reality and have more values - 
and have existing popular values (including iD presets) documented.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding, but this seems to be along the lines of 
access=customers - which is also widely used but undocumented on the access 
wiki (which is bizarre). access=emergency or similar is also undocumented (fire 
road, u-turn route through a median, etc) 

I want to say that only disabled vehicles can gain access through a barrier or 
use a parking isle. These vehicles are legally defined in many countries, and 
there are informal yet easily defined in other places (like Japan). 

This is similar to access=customers, where it is posted that only customers may 
use the parking lot, otherwise it is considered trespass (which is a legal 
thing) and in the US disabled parking is a legal definition with registrations, 
tags, and penalties - so that sounds similarly legal to me. If they are a 
legally separated  group, access better be able to deal with it - which is why 
access=customers came about and is a better and more easily understood value 
than permissive for many retail/commercial facilities (which is sooo many 
facilities) . A Conditional value is an exception to another state, whereas 
access=* is more direct about the state.

 

Seniors and priority is a grey area, but, as I stated, drivers over 75 are 
required to mark their vehicles with a symbol, and there are special parking 
spots for them in large facility. There should be some kind of accounting for 
them in the capacity:=x format. (This is not about access=seniors) Any kind 
of defined and size /purpose separated  parking at a venue: bus, motorcycle, 
senior, pregnant, electric, (which has a value now - charging), taxi, or 
other marked and segregated parking  should be represented in capacity:*=x  
**because that is what exists in the real world** - OSM should bend to reality 
and be consistent in its tagging for capacity:*=x otherwise people will tag 
around it and the documentation and implementation of the key will be worthless.

There should be no issue with tagging a giant parking lot as:

Amenity=parking
Access=customers
Capacity=1000
Capacity:disabled=30
Capacity:bus=20
Capacity:senior=10
Capacity:priority=5
Capacity:motorcycle=8 (service areas on motorways have motorcycle spots - not 
mopeds or bicycles) 
Capacity:taxi=4 (there are reserved parking for taxis waiting to move to the 
taxi stand when there are no customers) 
Capacity:emergency=2 (police/parking/ambulance parking reserved)

Besides the police spots, I could tag a single large mall parking lot like that 
easily every 30km in Japan. 

Or breaking down the smaller lots (especially when they are separated by 
hedges/pathways from the main lot!) 

Amenity=parking
Access=customers
Capacity=20
Capacity:senior=20

Seems straightforward.

Access=customers is an established (and documented*) and well used tag (100K 
uses), and a preset in iD. 

There have to be some similar good values besides permissive or destination.

(btw. I don't see any problems with capacity:x=* tags, just the access=* values)

access=emergency
rather access=no + emergency=yes

 a legally separated  group
When it's a group, it belongs in the key, not in the value. There's
two values that are a bit misleading (forestry and agriculture) but
that's because they are used differently, i.e. there are (rare) signs
which effectively mean vehicles allowed only if used for agriculture
and other signs applying to vehicles registered as agricultural
vehicles (not allowed, i.e. tractors and, possibly, other motorized
machinery).

Re: [Tagging] works_as_highway=primary

2015-08-01 Thread John Eldredge
It makes sense to me to go more by physical attributes than the official 
primary/secondary/tertiary rating. Among other reasons, medium-term 
conditions such as construction projects may mean that the quickest route 
from point A to point B involves the use of a lower-rated roadway to bypass 
a choke point.

Based on what John Willis has said about tagging in Japan, I don't
think
this is true.

 From what I understand from his previous posts to this and other OSM
mailing lists, the OSM tagging in Japan follows the official
classification, and often results in small windy roads through cities
that are historically important being marked as primary, while modern
bypass roads are marked as secondary or even lower.

I think that this breaks a router's idea that primary is better than
secondary, and I think that this problem is exactly why people advocate

for not following official classification.
