You have to choose between simple modelling (like a multi-lane road is a single line) or high accuracy mapping (map each track exactly where it is) else you get a mess with high zoom rendering. This is the problem you yourself saw in your first post in this thread. So the "solution" is simple: pick one option. I told you which one I would pick. Simple not? -- m.v.g., Cartinus _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
