there are some notes in the Wiki about downgrading state highways to tertiary if they don't connect up to other secondary roads at reasonable intervals.
in the spirit of this, when i encountered a county route in Rensselaer County that was a stub that only reached a couple of houses and a trailer park, i decided to try tagging it as residential, but included the ref tag for CR 9; the road in question is Lauster Terrace. As you can see here, Mapnik doesn't handle ref tags on a residential road particularly well: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=42.55316&lon=-73.67955&zoom=17&layers=M before i rush off and open a mapnik ticket, i thought i'd broach this question: how far should we downgrade routes in these circumstances? was residential too far in this case, should i have stopped at unclassified? richard _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
