Further to Tobias's raising of :<mode>, :wet, :<direction> etc. for pseudovoting, I'd like to raise a general method for tagging properties of the two sides of the road:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/right_left The proposal suggests an interpretation of suffixes like <property>:left=<value> <property>:right=<value> which works in a backwards-compatible way and which is machine- interpretable for different classes of application. It does not suggest any particular keys for <property>, however it might ultimately be used to resolve the inability to specify which side(s) of the road a cycleway is on, for example. I think it would work quite well for static, non-access-related features applicable only to single sides of the road. Abutters, cycleways, names spring to mind as immediate uses. -- Andrew Chadwick _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
