Now, how do we learn about what we are viewing, and how to make the magic work? I did a search on maxspeed osm lab, and got a few hits to pages talking about it, but didn't find a page describing what I'm looking at. I tried looking at my own local area, and get nothing but the base map. Only Alberta is defined as a relation. I'm going to assume that the admin relation needs to have things associated, such as a base speed limit. For Alberta, we would probably define a max speed of 80 km/h, which is the default for the rural highway grid (which encompasses all roads excluding highways). Do you define default speed limits for different classes of roads. Show me and I'll shut up... (<hee hee> like that will happen) I might be quiet for a little bit though. Just another thing that I know I don't know. James VE6SRV _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
