I'm relatively agnostic as to which one tagging mechanism is used. I'd probably have a slight leaning to service=driveway for everything, and then have a lower level key. Yes, the wiki would need changing, but semantically, they are all driveways (shared or not). Whether or not it is

Thanks for the feedback on the shared driveways. I was wondering if you would take the same approach to similar shared driveways that lead to commercial properties as per ways in residential areas? Refer to examples below: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/698542896

I don't think we are going to have a single rule that always applies, but: generally a shared driveway - will break the highway=* gutter with a kerb ramp - usually won't have a kerb - usually on private land - usually maintained by the owners - letter boxes and garbage bins usually need to be

Hey Matthew, I think the distinction is inherited from the distinction between highway=service and highway=residential. A "regular" driveway shouldn't be a residential road, and a narrow, but otherwise unremarkable residential road doesn't become a service road. I do feel as though there

So what then distinguishes highway=residential from a shared driveway in Sebastian's 3 examples? * The first way 818426144 is an unnamed shared service road, so seems to neatly fit the pipestem example as explained. The addresses in this style of development are likely to be unit numbers,

Interesting discussion; it does seem like the consensus is landing on the side of service=pipestem. There are 668 instances of driveway=pipestem in Australia: https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1gU6, but there is 0 instances of service=pipestem: https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1gUd. However, it seems

In the global community it's still disputed, see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:service%3Ddriveway#Pipestems and my proposal to have this as an editor preset https://github.com/openstreetmap/id-tagging-schema/pull/239 where the tagging question is still not resolved. I've actually

I think I started the last discussion on this, so I'll wade in! Driveways are a bit of a nightmare - there are lots that don't fit neatly into one bucket or another. We did agree that service=driveway, driveway=pipestem was better than service=pipestem. It's probably 6 of one, half a dozen

Hi Seb! The last time this came up on the mailing list (https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-au/2021-September/015014.html) most people seemed to approve of the following mapping: highway=service service=driveway driveway=pipestem Dian On 2022-03-15 20:16, Sebastian Azagra

Hi all, Had a query regarding the mapping of driveways / shared driveways as there seems to be quite a number of different approaches in the data. Below are three examples of similar ways that have different tags used in each instance. Highway=service Service= driveway
