[talk-au] network and route tags

2013-01-25 Thread David Clark
Hi All, I am interested in a small area of trails. There are about 10 trails in a local reserve, all the trails are sign posted and named etc, but there is no actual marked route you just pick which trails you want to use to get to where you want to go. However the tagging used in OSM to me seems

[talk-au] Highway=path

I've been mapping stuff on OSM for a while but I've recently started doing my own rendering for gps. From this I've gained a new insight into the highway=path tag so am posting here. Firstly my focus is on tracks and trails so that is where I'm coming from. The basics of what I have noticed is

The Australian Tagging Guidelines says to tag them highway=path, foot=yes. I think surface=unpaved or dirt or ground should be included too. Yup. I've long argued that objectively verifiable tags, like surface, are very useful. Yeah I recon that would be good, and have the surface hyperlinked

I have 2 thought on this and have posted before about the surface=blahblah tag not being used for highway=path when by my interpretation it really should be. ie if you use highway=path, then you should be including the tag surface=blahblah if you have any idea what the surface is (because there is

I lean towards mapping what's physically there, so if the trail exists I think it's ok to map it if you want to. If the trail is blocked by a fence/barrier and signage saying keep out etc, then I think access=no would be appropriate as it's facts based on what's physically there. I also

I come across similar situations quite often and you could write an essay on access to each individual trail but it's not worth it and still doesn't improve the accuracy or clarity. My opinion is that the situation is sufficiently vague enough that I wouldn't tag any specific access or

Hi, I use www.ridewithgps.com for route planning and have found I can't plan a route across a ford even though the tagging looks correct. I'm not sure at the moment if this is a problem with OSM routing in general or with the www.ridewithgps.com routing. When planning a route it won't let you
