Excellent! Some feedback: - the terrain shading is distracting and not useful at higher zoom levels (16+, maybe 15+) - why not show the names of the runs? (rather than having to click on them) - the "interactive mode" button is not intuitive at all. I had no idea it was a button until I happened to click Settings. Why not leave interactive mode on all the time? - in the mountains I looked at, the chairlift icons are often upside down... - could it be more obvious which is the start of each (downhill) run? - would be great to have a summer/winter mode button (in summer mode, show the mountain bike trails, hiking routes etc) - at low zooms (<10), it's hard to find the ski resorts - they could be much more prominent - suggest changing "mapkey" to "legend" (or just "key". Or at least put a space in it :)) - what is the "profile" button meant to do? It just gives this one tip about clicking the interactive button... - I find the whole "interactive" mode clunky and not intuitive. Why not follow the established conventions of direction finding, using a similar interface to Google Maps, Bing Maps, or hell, OSRM? It's pretty confusing: it took me a while to work out that it's even doing routing. All I wanted to do was click on a run to find out more about it. - the "mapkey" doesn't explain what the little warning signs ( /!\ ) are for. Steepness? - I also see two different coloured XC trails, but I can't see anything in the legend that explains why? - I love the elevation profile - would be great to be able to click on a single run/track and see the profile for it. - the wiki page that is linked to to explain the colour coding of ski runs doesn't actually explain them: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Tag:route%3Dpiste (Suggest you just include text descriptions, like "easy", "difficult" etc) - would be great to use bezier smoothing on the ski runs if at all possible - they look very sharp and jagged. Anyway, overall it looks great! Don't be put off my feedback :) Steve _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
