That's a closed way for a platform which *is* an area. It seems clear to me that the intent was not for this to represent a linear feature. If it were, the line would have been drawn down the center of the platform, not along the outside edge of it. >> (and rendering issue cannot be >> fixed by splitting the way for instance). > > We could do that for highways and other examples, too: Always treat > closed loops as an area, and model other loops by splitting the way. That would have broken backward compatibility. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
