Hi Ervin, Option 1 is what I do.
Take note that if we have a way with highway=something and bridge=yes, then the object is primarily a highway/road and the bridge is only an aspect or property of the highway/road segment. Therefore, the name=* tag should be the name of the highway/road. And then put the name of the bridge on the bridge:name=* tag. Besides, it will be very weird to have a long highway with unconnected names just because there are bridges along the highway. The only time I would put the name of the bridge on the name=* tag is if the roads from both ends of the bridge have different names. For example, the bridge formerly called Del Pan in Manila: www.openstreetmap.org/way/4304674 ~Eugene On Wed, Feb 18, 2015 at 5:34 PM, Ervin Malicdem <[email protected]> wrote: > Query regarding tagging bridges. > What is the appropriate way of tagging bridges? > > Option1: Use the name of the road, and place the name of the bridge under > bridge:name or the name of the tunnel under tunnel:name > > Option2: Use the name of the bridge/tunnel, omit the road name > > Thanks > > Ervin M. > *Schadow1 Expeditions* - A Filipino must not be a stranger to his own > motherland. > http://www.s1expeditions.com > > _______________________________________________ > talk-ph mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph > >
