Please please *please* use metres. Merkaartor has some code that generates address interpolation ways using degrees, and it results in the distance from streets depending on the street's orientation, and looks plain ugly in any projection apart from latlon. As for the distance itself, I'd prefer 14-17 metres for highway=tertiary and below, and 20-23 metres for highway=secondary and above, if such a distinction is possible. This is based on observations from Toronto and area; I don't know about other cities. -- Victor Bielawski _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
