An additional highway type "trail" is no solution to the problem of missing decent classification criteria "path vs footway" and would likely cause further trouble for many sorts of reasons. I personally prefer to use the universal and compatible "highway=path". Along with specific sub-tags for physical and access properties it's the Swiss army knife for non motorized traffic. -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/highway-footway-Advanced-definition-Distinction-footway-vs-path-tp5851506p5853383.html Sent from the Tagging mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
