If I understand correctly, to do this without heavy pre-processing, the information would have to be in the tags? Would it have to be in the tags of every individual way, or would a tag on an encompassing area (e.g. landuse=residential) be sufficient? > > _______________________________________________ > Tagging mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging >
