Bom dia!
sorry for posting in English, but I feel this to be a relevant
information and question.
Some of you actively mapping in Portugal may have seen altely some
increased activity from some german mappers. This is because a user who
is active in quality assurance has run a "connection check" over the
portugese OSM data. This check searches for roads that are crossing
without bridge or tunnel. There is a list with those errors on the wiki
[1] and every user can take a block of 100 errors, leave a note in the
wiki that he is dealing with them and try to fix these. Fixing the
errors is much easier now with the help of Bing imagery.
I feel that it would have definitely been nicer to have informed the
portugese OSM community *before* starting this campaign, but better late
than never.
Now to my personal question on mapping in Portugal: I have read a bit
about the road network and number in Portugal on the english wikipedia
[2]. I see that you have some new road numbers starting with "IP" and
"IC" that were assigned in the 2000 Plano Rodoviário Nacional. And then
you have the older estradas nacionais given out in the 1945 Plano
Rodoviário Nacional. I already checked the OSM wiki project page for
Portugal [3] but could not find any recommendation about how to tag
these. Shall I use "EN329" or "N329"? Same goes for the estradas
regionais: Should we use "ER32" or "R32"? Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Claudius
