In that case, just to clarify, I meant Camp 2a) All elements mapped with the bridge as a *separate* element (e.g. an area, not a relation) Camp 2b) All elements mapped with the bridge as a grouping of elements (a relation, including the ways on the bridge and optionally the area indicating the bridge surface, etc.) These are both covered by http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations/Proposed/Bridges_and_Tunnels > The point I am trying to make is that the two camps HAVE to co-exist. > What we are looking for is a way to 'rough in' the data, and provide a > macro level view of things, and then add the NECESSARY detail below that > so that micro mapping can simply be added to the macro model.
