Id sugest a tag for route system. ie ref=xxx rtsys=usma etc and for route that are in multiple systems (ie I95 which is also MA 128 for much of it in ma) you can add ref:sec and rtsys:sec. Sent with Verizon Mobile Email

Exactly my point. Great Britain is fine with ref=M1 despite there being an M1 in many other countries - and even in Northern Ireland, part of the same country. UK is not USA is not Argentina is not Germany. The difference with the UK example is that there is a consistency: M1 = M1. In the case of Arkansas we're talking about AR 26, Hwy 26 and possibly in the future also 26. All being a ref for the same State Highway. That is the problem. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
