Several of us on this list plan trips by blank areas on OSM and non-blank areas on other maps, what we currently lack is a good way/method to store information about non-existent roads. In Qld this is somewhat simpler since we have access to property boundaries and we can simply mark non-existent roads as non-existent and line them up with the gaps between properties, however we can't use this method any where else yet. I've penned a few thoughts on what to do about this on the wiki, but they all seem to be lacking for various reasons. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Tagging_Guidelines#What_happens_if_another_map_says_a_road_exists_but_isn.27t_really_there.3F But yes, knowing the difference between non-existent and non-mapped is very helpful, just ask Liz :) _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
