Some more stats for you on the end of the mail. In summary: - there are 3909 highway=crossing entered in the DB, 665 crossing=* and a combined total of 4348 (216 share the tags) - toucan, zebra, pelican, puffin are used exclusively in the UK, bar 2 toucans in Germany - there are 141 uses of the crossing key outside of the UK -- most of these are traffic_signals or uncontrolled - bicycle=yes is used in the crossing context 18 times, 10 of those in the UK, and 2 with crossing=toucan - horse=yes isn't used at all in this context, but then there aren't any pegasus crossings either, pity. By my calculation that's just 10 bicycle crossings marked outside of the UK using either tagging scheme at the current time. Dave caveat: country is calculated using the world boundaries which are used on the main mapnik layer middle-zoom levels to render land. It's not exactly entirely accurate. select highway,crossing,country,count(*) as c from (select find_cntry(way) as country, * from planet_osm_point where highway='crossing' or crossing is not null) as crossings group by highway,crossing,country order by c desc; highway | crossing | country | c -----------------+-----------------+------------------------+----- crossing | | United Kingdom | 803 crossing | | Germany | 709 crossing | | | 583 crossing | | Czech Republic | 271 crossing | | Sweden | 222 crossing | | France | 181 crossing | | Norway | 139 crossing | | Australia | 139 crossing | | Spain | 106 traffic_signals | pelican | United Kingdom | 97 crossing | zebra | United Kingdom | 90 crossing | | Canada | 80 crossing | | Iran | 73 | toucan | United Kingdom | 70 crossing | toucan | United Kingdom | 61 crossing | | Italy | 48 traffic_signals | toucan | United Kingdom | 45 traffic_signals | traffic_signals | Germany | 45 crossing | | United States | 44 | pelican | United Kingdom | 43 crossing | | Russia | 42 crossing | | Switzerland | 42 crossing | pelican | United Kingdom | 36 crossing | | Ireland | 36 | uncontrolled | Byelarus | 34 | zebra | United Kingdom | 32 crossing | | Austria | 32 crossing | | Romania | 31 crossing | | Byelarus | 23 | traffic_signals | Byelarus | 23 crossing | | Philippines | 14 crossing | | Poland | 14 | traffic_signals | Germany | 13 crossing | traffic_signals | United Kingdom | 12 crossing | | Belgium | 11 crossing | | Denmark | 10 | uncontrolled | Germany | 9 crossing | | Japan | 9 crossing | | Netherlands | 8 | island | United Kingdom | 7 traffic_signals | traffic_signals | United Kingdom | 6 crossing | uncontrolled | Germany | 6 crossing | | Hungary | 4 crossing | | India | 4 crossing | | Luxembourg | 4 crossing | | Turkey | 3 crossing | uncontrolled | United Kingdom | 3 crossing | traffic_lights | United Kingdom | 3 | yes | United Kingdom | 3 crossing | | Slovenia | 2 crossing | | Kazakhstan | 2 traffic_signals | none | Germany | 2 crossing | traffic_signals | Germany | 2 | toucan | Germany | 2 traffic_signals | toucan | | 2 | uncontrolled | United Kingdom | 1 traffic_signals | Zebra | United Kingdom | 1 traffic_signals | traffic_lights | United Kingdom | 1 crossing | | Lithuania | 1 | underpass | United Kingdom | 1 crossing | puffin | United Kingdom | 1 traffic_signals | no | Byelarus | 1 crossing | unclassified | United Kingdom | 1 crossing | | South Africa | 1 | traffic_lights | Germany | 1 crossing | | Bosnia and Herzegovina | 1 crossing | uncontrolled | Norway | 1 crossing | | Slovakia | 1 total highway='crossing' == 4348 _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
