Re: [OSM-talk-be] how to map a fr:talus?

Hi, I use man_made=embankment for a "talus". Some "talus" were raised through the forests to delineate former districts ("communes"). In Gaume, in the meadows with a moderate slope, there are a lot of "talus" laying perpendicular to the slope, often with a hedge. They correspond to former field

That sounds a lot like a retaining wall: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:barrier%3Dretaining_wall Otherwise embankment or cutting might be alternatives or better. It is hard to tell without a picture. wouter On Thu, Nov 23, 2017 at 4:48 PM, André Pirard wrote:

I'm not entirely sure this is what you have in mind, but in the cases where it is associated with roads, I've seen historic=hollow_way (when the slope is caused by the fact that there's an old road), and "embankment" or "cutting" when the slope is deliberatly constructed. In other cases, I've seen

Hi, I'm looking for how to map what is called in French a talus (Google's translation). I would call this a 1.8m simple step running for some reason for several 100s meters across meadows. Steep slope. There are "top of slope" and "bottom of slope" lines.
