Nonetheless I add one out of habit. But I would be happy to stop, because as noted, the bridge or culvert carries an implicit layering. > Bridge or culvert, one way has to be split (the road for bridge or the > stream for culvert) My rule of thumb here is how it looks from above: if the people on the top would perceive it as a bridge, I split that way and mark is as a bridge. Otherwise I split the waterway and mark it as a culvert. -- --my blog is at http://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
