> We could also create a preprocessor that "unifies" OSM data.
I've been thinkink a lot about an osm pré-processor, but not to solve the problem you mentionned. The main problem, to my point of vue, in the duplicates tag case, is not at developper/renderer side, but at begginers learning to contribute to OSM, and that is not solvable by a pre-processor ;-) I mentionned the fact that solving it for begginers will also solve it for a cheap price at dev/renderer side. > This seems to me far superior than trying to meddle with the OSM > database itself through bots & scripts. For data uses yes, but not for data feeding. The idea I was after with a pre-processor was to explicit those so many default values than need to be hardcoded in every routing software in order to guess that a motorway is unaccessible to pedestrians. But that's another story. -- sly Sylvain Letuffe [email protected] qui suis-je : http://slyserv.dyndns.org _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
