Key:road_marking - OpenStreetMap Wiki
Unlike similar keys (e.g. Key:turn) which annotate highway ways, road_marking 
ways describe the markings themselves. This level of detail is experimental, 
and has ...

which is quite often used (~ 19.000 times on ways).


A few mappers try to map the areas on roads which

are enclosed by a white line and crossing while lines

("schraffierte Fläche") . I haven't found a frequently used

tag for that, one uses highway=central_reservation which

makes not much sense to me.

Betreff: [Tagging] when should highway=centreline be used?


Hi all,


we have 153 ways tagged

highway=centre_line


The wiki describes that as the white stripes in the middle of a road.

I looked at some ways tagged like that and they all seem to

be barriers between large roads (motorway,trunk), e.g.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/118699380


This way

http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/117153052

is also tagged type=oneway. No idea what that would mean.


My understanding so far:

The tag makes no sense, editors use it instead of barrier=hedge

or something similar.

In Germany we have a traffic_sign that warns drivers when

the white line is missing, e.g. because the road was recently repaired.

I think if one wants to map this, it should be an attribute for the existing

highway, not a new way. I think the tag centreline=* is used for that (130 
times).
