Re: [Tagging] Underground power lines in tunnel
If you look at my entire message, I did point out that vertical clearance was an attribute of the ways, not the bridge. How should the vertical clearance from the bridge to the water be tagged, and how do you tag what height of water was the reference point? If the water level is high, there will be less room for watercraft to pass under the bridge. Martin Koppenhoefer dieterdre...@gmail.com wrote: On 06/giu/2013, at 23:55, John F.

Re: [Tagging] Underground power lines in tunnel
Hi 2013/6/5 Martin Koppenhöfer dieterdre...@gmail.com This one, right? http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations/Proposed/Bridges_and_Tunnels +1 from me, although we don't need voting to use the tags ;-) Sure this one. I don't recognize the common proposal template. Is there other one for relations proposal ? If not, I'll edit it to match traditional workflow. an issue I see is the height property, AFAIK this is often indicated as distance from the ground/surface below to the carriageway (that's what the proposal says at the moment), but could also be used (osm) for the greatest vertical extension including towers / pylons etc. (would be more consistent with how the height tag is usually used in osm) Other interesting tags to add are architect (sometimes), start_date, ele and wikipedia. I'd also like to see some proposal regarding the structure.

Re: [Tagging] Underground power lines in tunnel
There are three height types for a bridge over a navigable waterway: the maximum distance from ground level to the highest part of the bridge structure, the maximum height of vehicle plus cargo that can go across the bridge, and the maximum clearance for vehicles passing under the bridge. The proposal mentions the first two, but not the third. It does not, as far as I can tell, provide for a way to specify where the reference point is located for the height-above-ground figure, which is an issue since the ground level at one end of a bridge is often different from the ground level at the other end. The proposal states, correctly, that the maximum height of a vehicle is a property of each of the ways passing across. Roads passing under the bridge need to be tagged with max height. The tricky part is tagging the max height of ships that may wish to pass under the bridge, as this will vary with the water level. The current proposal doesn't seem to handle either aspect of the ship-clearance questions.

Re: [Tagging] Underground power lines in tunnel
Hi, I agree with you Martin. And that's why I'm looking for a way to say those power lines/lanes/roads are on the same bridge/tunnel. As you mentionned, the tunnel/bridge name can precise which bridge is but it's not a relational (or even spatial) way of bringing objets together. Ok a tunnel isn't easy to map since we can't use GPS. But nothing prevent us to create a relation to setup such a link between roads and bridge for example. That's why I'm interested by the proposal given above. Nobody wants it accepted ? Cheers.

Then you still have to define what is one tunnel, maybe also 2 (or more) distinct tubes could qualify as one tunnel? Tunnels can have even more complex topologies than only 1 or 2 tubes going through, it depends on the purpose. Regarding power lines, technical facilities can follow surface streets but it's not mandatory. They can have different heights, different levels with links between them, manhole access, etc... We still call them tunnels here but there's really nothing common with road tunnels. It's out of question to map such restricted access facilties with details, but it's important to show if several features share the same infrastructure or not even if it's difficult to represent whata tunnel is in that particular situation. Yes, you could either use a relation for the bridge (with name, ref, wikipedia and other tags, describing the bridge) and add the highways to the relation with a role running over the bridge, or draw distinct geometry for the bridge perimeter (and eventually geometry for the supports, pylons, etc.). The latter could also be done additionally and added to the relation). The same applies for tunnels besides that we often don't know exactly the shape of the tunnel. The problem is such features (like power lines or ways of a highway) are always redundant with components of tunnels or bridges themselves. We don't need to create dedicated geometry for an highway tunnel since the geometry of the road gives the path followed by this tunnel. So we can precise it in the role attribute of the tunnel/bridge relation member which tube the road way represent. Since OSM doesn't manage relation member attributes at all, it will be difficult. = A relation for each tube or gallery ?

Re: [Tagging] Underground power lines in tunnel
One reason it would be useful to be able to tag bridges (and, to a lesser extent, tunnels) as single physical objects is that they may be used as landmarks. For example, you may be traveling along a street that runs parallel to a river, looking for a location just past a certain bridge. If the renderer showed three bridges, for example, due to the tagging, but there is really just one bridge, you may end up going past your intended destination before realizing that the map didn't match reality.

Thanks fly for this answer. Type=tunnel can suits my needs : let's add all power lines in the relation with role=through. Add tubes or not depends on the tunnel design, not on what's inside.

Re: [Tagging] Underground power lines in tunnel
Hi That's already a problem for ways, too: A motorway with two separate highways in OSM may be one bridge alltogether - but is mapped as two. A street where the footways along are separated by a small wall or a hedge is drawn as distinct osm ways (at least it should be) but if these ways share the same bridge construction, there the problem is exactly the same.
