as i go forward mapping raceways in north america, one of the issues is modeling multi configuration courses such as Watkins Glen and Lime Rock.
one solution is to use route relations, and add a new route type, route=raceway in this model, i would use forward and backward roles where necessary. right now the best example of this i have is of my model of the Thompson road courses over the years at Thompson Speedway in Connecticut, which is in OHM. some sections of the raceway were used in different directions in different variations of the course, hence the need for forward & backward. also, it would be useful to have ref tags or some equivalent id tag on the relations to facilitate querying, e.g. WGI1 for the first Glen circuit, WGI2 for the second, and perhaps suffixes for the multiple configurations of WGI4 (WGI4.Short, WGI4.Long, WGI4.Short.InnerLoop, WGI4.Long.InnerLoop or something like that.) this isn't really a formal proposal right now, i'm just looking for input/suggestions on how to approach this, and to see if anyone has thought about this and maybe has better ideas. thanks, richard -- rwe...@averillpark.net Averill Park Networking - GIS & IT Consulting OpenStreetMap - PostgreSQL - Linux Java - Web Applications - Search
