That's right. There's two acceptable approaches to dealing with this: 1) use a relation to relate the way and intersection - for this, I see nothing wrong with http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Relation:type%3Dstop or 2) use a way and an implicit reference to a node to relate the way and intersection - this is what David is proposing here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:stop The "implicit reference to a node" is in the form of "at_first_node/at_last_node", etc. So IMHO David's proposal is a good way to avoid the use of a relation - if that is what people want. I personally don't mind relations as they're more explicit and not dependent on way direction. Either way, you have to split the way at the junction where the stop sign applies. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
