Re: [Tagging] dock=tidal

2015-05-29 Thread 715371
I would like to make the decision based on the usage of a dock.

Such dock=tidal would never be used to pump the dock dry, but to keep a
fixed water level, I think.

Then the usage of dock=drydock would be associated to the purpose of dry
docks.

At Bremerhaven the structures which are described by dock=floating are
tagged different. They are tagged as building=dock, floating=yes,
type=floating_dock, waterway=dock. This is some double tagging, but
still, I do not like type=*. So IMO it is a bad example for tagging dry
docks.

[Tagging] dock=tidal

2015-05-28 Thread 715371
Hi,

I just wondered how to tag a dock which is tidal, since the wiki does
not propose anything for that case. In fact the wiki proposes dock=tidal
for a dock, which has a tidal independent water level i.e. the water
level is managed.

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:waterway%3Ddock

But maybe I am totaly wrong and the type of dock should be tagged as
waterway=riverbank or natural=water, water=river.

How ever this does not give the information that the dock is tidal. And
if I am not wrong the meaning of tidal is exactly that the water level
is changing depending on the tide and is not managed in any way.

Overpass API gives me a number of 42 polygones for dock=tidal in total.
I figured out that  9 seem to be wrongly mapped according the wiki, 19
are done by me and 14 seem to be correctly tagged.

http://overpass-turbo.eu/?w=%22dock%22%3D%22tidal%22+globalR

So what do you think about deprecating the usage of dock=tidal as it is
proposed at the wiki and propose the opposite? In that case I would
propose something like dock=basin or dock=managed_water_level.

Tobias

[Tagging] Does oneway:bicycle apply to cycleway=track?

2015-02-25 Thread 715371
Hi all,

I have a situation where a cycleway=track is not a oneway, while the
highway itself is a oneway=yes. So I added oneway:bicycle=no to the way
because it is true from at least one point of view.

The same problem applies to cycleway=opposite_track.

BTW: Neither graphhopper nor mapquest supports cycleway=opposite_track
without oneway:bicycle=no.

I also asked the question on the discussions page of wiki page about oneway:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Key:oneway#Does_oneway:bicycle_also_apply_to_cycleway.3Dtrack_or_cycleway.3Dopposite_track.3F

Am 25.02.2015 um 22:20 schrieb Hubert:
 The implied problem in your question is how to interpret a (main) tag on an 
 osm_way. Does it only apply to the carriageway/driving lanes or to the whole 
 street which also includes cycleways, sidewalks, etc ? Just consider the 
 width=* or lanes=* tags.

Is there any propsal for width?

lanes=* is a good example. It does only count the number of lanes for
cars, those for bicycles are not counted and at bicycle:lanes=* each
bicycle lane is associated to a lane for motor vehicles.

 Yet, I wouldn't go so far as to declare it wrong tagging, but I personally 
 would not tag oneway:bicycle=no on such streets as describes by you. Instead 
 I would add cycleway:oneway=no to the osm_way and avoid the issue. 

I am using a tagging like

cycleway:right:oneway=no

if it was only applied to a single side.

cycleway:oneway=no

if it was applied to all cycleways. If there is only
cycleway:right=track, the above cycleway:oneway=no would mean the same
as cycleway:right:oneway=no.

 (On cycleway=opposite_track I'd use cycleway:oneway=-1)

Sounds good, but may be there exists something like a default? I cannot
find any combinations with taginfo. But may be this is interesting. For
cycleway=opposite the majority of uses is without oneway:bicycle. So
there may be that oneway case included as default, too.

But if you think about the tagging, than oneway=* applies to everything
of the highway except pedestrians. So if there is an exception to the
way you would look in second instance for those oneway:*=* tags and make
your decision. In the other case you have to check for each possibility
what mappers may have tagged on the way e.g.

cycleway:both:oneway
cycleway:left:oneway
cycleway:right:oneway
cycleway:oneway
cycleway=opposite
cycleway=opposite_lane
cycleway=opposite_track

Whether it applies to the carriageway or a cycle track may be concluded
from other tags, too. For example cycleway=opposite implies
oneway:bicycle is applied to the carriageway and a penalty for cars.
cycleway:freedom_of_choice=no or cycleway:obligatory=yes would imply
that oneway:bicycle does not matter for cars.

 Seems absolutely fine to me. One alternative (for better compatibility)
 would be motorroad=yes + motorroad:lanes=yes|yes|yes|no

 this sounds strange to me, a motor road according to German law (and word)
 is referring to a road, not to a lane, so there shouldn't be roads with
 lanes of which some are motor roads and others aren't, it is more probable
 that the whole motor road gets interrupted by the bridge (to allow crossing
 by all vehicles) and restarts after it.

 
 My response was solely to the tagging itself. If the original observation
 is wrong, that's a completely different story ;-)

Good clue.

But since this is (one of) the first possibilities to put a sign to end
the motorroad, this maybe meaningless.

Just imagine the situation was true, that there is a single lane which
is not motorroad, then why shouldn't you put a sign, which is applied to
all lanes?

 By the way, at this entry to motorrad from Daniel-von-Büren-Straße
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3247878878
 the sign 331.1 - begining of motorrad - is visible at left side. It
 should be applied to whole road, not only to the left lane.

Well, I think the German law might not be that straight at those
situations. I am not a lawyer, but at the StVO it reads like: Regularly
the signs are at the right hand side of the road and if they just apply
to single lanes, they are above those lanes (see StVO §39 (2)).

Well, this sentence sounds like bullshit to me (maybe somebody can tell
me what is regelmäßig means). However - the best I knew.

No. The only existing sign on that link is that one on the picture.
There is no second on the right hand side, too.

If you mean the other direction: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/203752771

It is a motorroad, but has a sidewalk.

But trunk nevertheless, I think, because it does not have any crossings.

I think to tag motorroad=yes/no would be wrong. Both does not apply to
all lanes. If you tag yes, you gonna have to add bicycle=yes,
moped=yes,... due to the single non-motorroad-lane (sidewalk does imply
foot=yes/designated).

There is a road with four lanes, but not all of them seem to be

motorroad:lanes=yes|yes|yes|no

[Tagging] Sidewalk tagged on highway=cycleway

2015-01-01 Thread 715371
Hi,

there is a sentence on

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dcycleway

which says

It is also possible to use {{Tag|sidewalk|right}}/*=left [on
highway=cycleway] to indicate which side of the segregated path
pedestrians should walk on (where right/left is relative to the way's
direction).

It was originally contributed by ulamm and modified by RobJN after a
short discussion (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User_talk:RobJN).
But this is the opposite of what is written on

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Sidewalks

The inclusion of sidewalk information makes it easier to provide
effective pedestrian routing, and in particular good narrative
descriptions of pedestrian routes along motorised roads. The sidewalk
tag is not needed on non-motorised thoroughfares, for example
highway=footway/cycleway/path/brideway/track. 

I think there better solutions to the problem than ulamm's.

If there are no further arguments, I will remove the sentence from the
first citation. What is your opinion on that?

[Tagging] Moveable objects tagged as building=*

2014-12-11 Thread 715371
Hi,

I am wondering if the building-tag should be used for moveable objects.
I guess that this is not in the sense of the meaning of building (see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building#Residential and check for
houseboats).

For example according to taginfo houseboats are mapped as
building=houseboat 11496 times. So this is not a new or minor tag.

I guess in this case man_made=boat/ship fits better than any building=*.

Nevertheless there is more stuff which could be moved from building to
some other keys. Maybe there are solutions like man_made=moveable_object
possible.

Some examples:
building=static_caravan
building=houseboat
building=boathouse
building=ship
building=boat
building=motorhome

Do you have any ideas?

 I asked, because the use is not clear by just reading the definition and
 not looking at the examples.

 highway=road + cycleway=track + bicycle=use_sidepath together, without an
 additional highway=cycleway OSMWay (for example) seem correct by definition.

 I can understand the confusion. Should the use be made more prominent in
 the description of the value?
