A Torii is not exactly an arch, but it is a gateway (at least symbolically). Perhaps man_made=gateway is a more general term, which can incude archways as well as rectangular gateways If you would like, you can start a proposal page. On Wed, Mar 13, 2019 at 7:26 PM Tony Shield wrote: > Been

Been wondering for months how to tag arches in general - not a mention in Wiki. I do like man-made = arch. I do think that there are several major types of arch which help, so this discussion started with torii and a possible answer is given as Perhaps they could be man_made=archway and

Thanks to Kevin & Volker for the suggestions. I tagged the object as suggested. FYI, similar to pedestrian area, the road ignores the layer=* tag and OSM/carto renders it badly. I imagine things like this lead to a lot of tagging for the renderer. Javbw > On Mar 12, 2019, at 7:38 PM,

The minimum that is needed is a layer=1 for the torii itself as it is above the road, not at the same level. On Tue, 12 Mar 2019 at 03:34, Kevin Kenny wrote: > On Mon, Mar 11, 2019 at 10:08 PM John Willis via Tagging > wrote: > > > > I understand about tunnel=building_passage for ways that

I understand about tunnel=building_passage for ways that pass through structures, but there are some objects that roads go "under", similar to bridges, but are not bridge-like items. In my local area, there are two large torii (shinto gates) that public roads pass through the center of. They
