> How about just using a tag to indicate direction? > direction= There are a couple of such proposals in the wiki, see links at the bottom of the discussed proposal. The purpose of relation is not only to state the direction of a point feature, but also sometimes link it to the surrounding features: for example, a direction of a sign is determined by the road segment leading to it. Also, this is much easier for mappers and consumers than to calculate degrees.
