A question was posted in the OSMPH facebook page: Hi folks. I noticed that OSM PH doesn't seem to have the rotundas correctly mapped. I believe they have to be entered as "roundabouts" instead curved paths or turns. Baguio rotundas seem to be correctly mapped. How do you do that?
The same author sent me a similar inquiry via FB message: I noticed that OSM PH doesn't seem to have the rotundas correctly mapped for most of metro manila. I believe they have to be entered as "roundabouts" instead curved paths or turns. Baguio rotundas seem to be correctly mapped. But how do you do that? sa baguio kasi i noticed that as you entered a rotunda (like the one near Wright Park), my GPS correctly calls it a "roundabout" and its voice prompt also correctly instructs to take the "nth" exit from the roundabout. compare that to say, the Welcome Rotunda coming from Manila as you enter rotunda towards UP GPS voice prompt would say "turn left and the right". Instead it should have said "enter roundabout and exit at Quezon Avenue". My answer below: I think "Welcome Rotonda" doesn't have a roundabout tag, hence, your Nuvi don't recognize them when giving turn directions. The way I see it 'Welcome Rotonda" technically is not a roundabout anymore. ========= Any other ideas regarding tagging rotunda/roundabout? -- cheers, maning ------------------------------------------------------ "Freedom is still the most radical idea of all" -N.Branden wiki: http://esambale.wikispaces.com/ blog: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ talk-ph mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
