Absolutely - this is true of pretty much every highway= value and they, too, have been adapted for use elsewhere. I'd echo the call not to use access=private on housing estates. Last year I was working on a (commercial) project to plan thousands of delivery routes in the urban US, using OSM data and routing software. The only serious issue we encountered was exactly this: the router couldn't plan journeys to estates where each road was tagged with access=private. We could have told the router to ignore access=private, but this would have created wrong routes in other situations. Using access=destination would have prevented this. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/correct-access-tagging-for-tourist-attraction-tp5828203p5828886.html Sent from the Tagging mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
