Re: [Talk-ca] Route relations
(sorry wrong from: address again..) In the US, we use a hierarchy of network classifications instead. For instance, Interstate 80 would be network=US:I, ref=80, role=east/west depending on if it’s an eastbound / westbound carriageway. This is a really neat and tidy way of organizing route relations. Has this been common practice in Canada as well or something to consider? Example: http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/280678 for I-80 in Utah Martijn — Martijn van Exel On Thu, Jul 16, 2015 at 12:42 PM, Andrew MacKinnon wrote: > On Thu, Jul 16, 2015 at 12:47 PM, Martijn van Exel wrote: >> Hi all, >> >> (resending from the correct email address, apologies) >> >> Thanks for all the responses to my previous thread.

Several users (OntarioEditor and osm_validation_and_improvements) created a whole bunch of relations for Ontario highways and county roads, but also added prefixes to roads (ON prefix to provincial highways and various prefixes like RR and CR to regional/county roads) which many OSM users were unhappy with and which I have been gradually reverting.

[Talk-ca] Route relations
Hi all, (resending from the correct email address, apologies) Thanks for all the responses to my previous thread. I am partly still processing the input but another topic came up while we were investigating route relations. I can’t seem to find a wiki page on route relations in Canada, or even per province. The exception is Ontario (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Canada:Ontario#Route_relations ). Am I not looking hard enough? Would a ‘relation pages’ for Canada perhaps make sense? The main reason I am asking is that I want to encourage our Telenav map analysts to help improve route relation coverage for Canada. We have been looking at the relation coverage and it seems to vary a lot by province. Perhaps a Canadian instance of Relation Pages would help? (See the US version here: http://184.73.220.107/relationpages/ - although this has not been updating correctly for a while) Martijn — Martijn van Exel___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
