Two suggestions: 1. Tag it as "crossing" instead of "ford", since 'crossing' doesn't imply it's shallow. Sounds silly to me to add yet another tag. People in your average retirement home don't go through unknown trails crossing fords, maybe that's just a cultural thing, though. They could always place their walker over the gap and slowly crawl over it. 2. Get a wooden plank, place it over the gap, tag it as a bridge.
Ok, now in a more serious tone, this tag may be of use: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:sac_scale _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
