OsmAnd was telling me that I was passing a toll_booth on a German motorway, however it was just one of the camera bridges operated by TollCollect, and applicable only for toll:hgv=yes. However toll is not collected when passing this point, it is collected for using a certain road segment.
Checking the wiki I found the tagging for toll technology quite underdeveloped, or do I miss something? https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag%3Abarrier%3Dtoll_booth limits the use for "A place where a road usage toll or fee is collected", which is semantically fine and therefore does not apply to those bridges, which would be enforcement devices rather collection stations. You pay at terminals elsewhere. Thus my next stop was https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:enforcement but, interestingly, it does not know yet about toll at all, yet. The fix seems to be simple, add enforcement=toll to the enforcement relation, and tag those bridges as devices. A bit trickier might the from/to nodes in the relation, the easiest would be just two nodes along the way under the bridge in proximity to indicate to which carriageway the camera belongs. I know that there are other countries where toll is collected the moment you pass under such camera bridges, thus for those cases barrier=toll_booth seems to be correct. barrier=toll_booth also seems to be abused for tagging paying stations for parking fees, this seems inappropriate as well? Seems to be vending=parking_tickets. tom _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
