I've done a bulk of the Nottingham one (especially in the South and East) and have generally followed the following rules (which others in the area appear to have followed too)
1. If it's got NCN numbers it's NCN - From the last sign I continue it until the next junction (e.g. NCN 15 is only signed between Trent Bridge and Wilford Suspension Bridge at the Trent Bridge end - I stop it at Wilford Suspension bridge (Welbeck Road) - http://osm.org/go/eu8aQ7KA?layers=C ). 2. If it's a "leisure route" crossing county boundaries it's RCN (Only one so far - The Erewash Valley Trail which happens to be NCN in parts) 3. If it's a "leisure route" within Nottinghamshire it's LCN (Only one of these at the moment - The Big Track) - never too sure if this should be LCN or RCN though! 4. If it's got signed destinations it's LCN - however none of these have names except one "Follow (green diamond) To New Basford Avoiding Tram Tracks" and "Follow (green diamond) To City Avoiding Tram Tracks" - Trying to give these names (of the destination) would be a pain and leave a right mess on the rendering (e.g. a stretch of road in one way relations for each of :- City Centre, Meadows, Lady Bay, Vale of Belvoir, Holme Pierpont, Cotgrave, Basingfield (via A52 Crossing), Gamston, and NCN 15!...), but should we actually be trying to record these? 5. Anything else is just bicycle=yes, any paths with cycle signs are "highway=cycleway; foot=yes" On 28 November 2011 17:23, Derick Rethans <[email protected]> wrote: > On Mon, 28 Nov 2011, Richard Fairhurst wrote: > > > I would like to propose that: > > > > - Local cycle networks with objective, on-the-ground evidence (usually > > signposts) are tagged as lcn=yes (and lcn_ref=..., lcn_name=..., or the > > relations equivalent) as at present. > > > > - Cycle networks that are not significantly verifiable on the ground, > but are > > proposed for official adoption and are under active discussion with the > > transport authority, are tagged as lcn=proposed. > > > > - Large-scale (non-NCN) leisure routes and county-wide networks are > moved to > > rcn=, to accord with the similar routes already tagged as such (e.g. > National > > Byway and light-blue-number routes). > > > > - Non-network routes are not tagged as lcn=, but may of course be tagged > as > > route=bicycle (perhaps as a relation). > > > > Thoughts? > > Very sensible, I'm all for this... no tagging for the render(s) in this > proposal either. > > regards, > Derick > > _______________________________________________ > Talk-GB mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb >
