Oh come on guys, we've had this discussion half a year ago... Not everyone can access the street, if there is a kerb higher than 3cm. Please think outside your own scope about the people which don't have two working legs, and are restricted to a wheelchair. You're faster than you can imagine in this situation if the "Truck Factor" does only hit one of your legs... If the sidewalks are correctly mapped, and the kerbs are mapped too (as they are in one of the examples Carles provided, with kerb=lowered), it is clearly an loss if information if the ways are deleted. The result on the past discussion was: Map as you wish, but do not destroy other's work or remove information. > And even if what I just said is only one side of a controversial > discussion, they for sure should never be rendered in a normal map, at > least not in the ugly way you see them in the pictures you pointed out. I'm absolutely with you, that footway=sidewalk shouldn't be rendered (at least on z<18) - but we're not mapping for the renderer here, or are we?^^ > > KaiRo best regards, Michael -- Michael Maier, Student of Telematics @ Graz University of Technology OpenStreetMap Graz http://osm.org/go/0Iz@paV http://wiki.osm.org/Graz http://wiki.osm.org/Graz/Stammtisch
