[OSM-talk] full history of a way?

I tried to download full history of a way The call to http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/way/34068057/full will fetch the current way with all its nodes (so I can open it in JOSM for example and look at it) The call to http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/way/34068057/history shows history of t

[OSM-talk] Tiger Shapefiles: MTFCC but no name for Interstates

I'm writing code to read the Tiger Shapefiles (.dbf and .shp); evidently an Interstate can be represented by three "road" lines: one for each collection of lanes in each direction, and one for the interstate itself. To restate the above in a bit more detail: there are sometimes records in the sha

[OSM-talk] How to tag an archway ?

Hi, someone on the french list asked how we could tag an "archway" ? Something like this: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Place_des_Vosges_archway.jpg I didn't find anything on the wiki or tagwatch. Maybe it's even questionable to have a special tag since it is either a normal extension of

Thanks again, Lennard. I thought that dev.openstreetmap.nl is a different machine that took over the services from hypercube. So, no coastline for a longer period? Are there any informations about when these services might be back? Shouldn't we update the wiki accordingly? All the best, Ulf On Sa

Re: [OSM-talk] Traffic lights

I just put the traffic lights on the nodes. Life is too short to spend time grouping them. There is too much Tiger fixup and unnamed, or completely missing roads to enter. If the junction is large, you'll probably have a longer than normal waiting time, thus it shouldn't be a problem if you
