[this is a lightly revised version of something i sent over to the OHM mailing list last night]
i didn't really get any input here, but i have made some progress in deciding what to do about the issue with visible remnants of old race tracks. i think that what i'm doing is consistent with the norms for tagging in both OSM and OHM. in OSM, i tag at least the basic, visible course as highway=track, with start_date and end_date when known (which is usually the case for US and Canada tracks - i have references which are pretty comprehensive.) additionally, i set disused:highway=raceway which the renderer for www.openstreetmap.org ignores. anyone looking at it in JOSM or Potlatch should be able to figure out what is going on and hopefully either ignore it or improve it. in OHM, i give it the full treatment as if it were a current race track, with of course start_date and end_date. the three drag strips i provided as examples (Bee Line, Motion and Motor City) are now tagged in this manner. richard -- rwe...@averillpark.net Averill Park Networking - GIS & IT Consulting OpenStreetMap - PostgreSQL - Linux Java - Web Applications - Search
