Sorry, maybe this is a language issue. In my mind, "height limit" of a way refers to maximum height *above* the way, whereas "clearance" of a way infers maximum height *under* the way. Maybe "clearance" isn't the best word for this - please suggest others. My main point is that when there is a "maximum height under a way", this should be tagged as an attribute of that way, not of the ways that pass under it. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
