sorry, I got you wrong here, thought you wanted to exclude them (foot-bridge).

if there are no legal restrictions one step or also 2 won't be an
unsurmountable obstacle for most vehicles.

you could use lanes=1 on the narrow parts.


Agree.



- a bridge or a raft with a bad link to the road/track i.e. a step at each
end of the bridge/raft. obstacle=unevenness ? or obstacle=step? For me
unevenness is to soft for what you describe.



split the way and put a short highway=steps, step_count=1


No. It would indicate that it can't be used by vehicles.


- a road on a dam or a bridge have been damaged : a bailey bridge
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailey_bridge) have been temporary (for ten
years ;-) ) added on it.



is this an obstacle, or is it simply another type of bridge
construction? If it is an obstacle the tagging should line out in what
the obstacle consists (smoothness, width, maxweight, ...)


It's first a lanes=1 and second short connecting slopes at each end. 
Something no so far from the steps I mentioned earlier i.e. you have to 
slow down at entrance and exit of the bridge.

Hi

In the UK local authorities are responsible for public rights of way.  Paths, 
bridleways etc.  There are so called Best Value Performance Indicators (BVPI) 
that require them to survey a certain % length of these each year to measure 
the ease of use of the network.

Documentation and forms for this are on the web.  
http://www.iprow.co.uk/gpg/index.php/Performance_Indicators

In this they talk on terms of Obstruction.  These are either points or lengths.

Point Obstructions (i.e. a discrete obstruction, on or too close to the path)

Wall/fence/hedge/electric fence/ other barrier
Tree/bough
Temporary Deposit (e.g. Straw bales)
Illegal or misleading sign
Building
Muddy/Boggy hole
Upgrowth (localised)

Linear Obstruction (Surface)

Cross-field not reinstated
Headland ploughed
Surface path our of repair
Flooded/muddy/boggy/rutted
Upgrowth

Linear Obstruction (Other)

Overgrowth
Standing water e.g. pond/lake
Barbed wire/electric fence adjacent
Intimidating beast/person
Encroachment (not ploughing) e.g. garden extension
Quarry
Plantation

It may be that this should be a different tag i.e. Obstruction as the objective 
of recording the above is to get the Obstruction removed and the right of way 
re-instated.

Regards

Dudley

Subject: [Tagging] Reconstructing «Dificult passability» proposal to «Obstacle»

Hi!

I'm reconsidering my proposal...
Before introduce in the wiki, I wanted to show you a scheme of the purpose... 
to see the viability of this.
I nedd help and comments ;)

I think that the name «Difficult Passability» could be changed for «Obstacle=*» 
(I see that this name is used in OSM: 
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/obstacle#values especially in Germany).


For values, I want to propose:
- obstacle=yes
- obstacle=fallen_tree
- obstacle=dense_vegetation --> you could combined with seasonal=yes

- obstacle=unevenness ---> when you probably need hands, but not only in 
technical hiking also could be a small wall of 1,5 meters height that you 
should overcome to continue the route, for example. It could be combined with 
«Safety measures on hiking trail»

- obstacle=narrowness (like this: 
http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/4315/11passetdelarabosa.jpg )
- obstacle=water --> and you could combine with ford=yes, for example or 
natural=wetland


I'm not sure what to do with the value obstacle=with_precipe... ¿Rename it? 
¿Omit it? ¿obstacle=precipice? ¿obstacle=cliff?

A «obstacle_description=*» key could be added for text (especially if only 
obstacle=yes you use).


The key refers to pedestrian and generalizes for bicycles or motor vehicles... 
perhaps a obstacle affects only to motor vehicles...
In this case, could be interesting to use especification like in the key 
access? obstacle:horse=yes , for example?

Thanks a lot!!

you could use lanes=1 on the narrow parts. "narrowness" is a very
relative concept and I wouldn't encourage you to use it, IMHO it is
better to use width (or est_width) also with rough estimates  it will
still be more useful.

is this an obstacle, or is it simply another type of bridge
construction? If it is an obstacle the tagging should line out in what
the obstacle consists (smoothness, width, maxweight, ...)


In general the change to "obstacle" as key seems consistent with what
you want to express. I would refrain from narrowness and water, as
there are already other ways to express them.

Martin

It's slightly offtopic, but wouldn't it be logical to use "car" as a non
accurate unit of length? So you can have a tag like "width=1car" or
"width=1.5car".

I remember people using 1.5 for the lanes=* tag, but this looks better to
me.

And for the obstacle, I think it's a useful tag. I'll vote for it.

2012-10-12 Thread Eric Sibert

Hi,

During my last travel in Africa, I was thinking on how to map  
obstacles on road. So I support your proposal but in a generalized  
way, not only for pedestrian or bicycle. And I take the opportunity to  
review what I observed:
- a narrow bridge i.e. you can't cross a vehicle in opposite  
direction. We may use width=* but it is difficult to get it precisely.  
obstacle=narrowness
- a bridge or a raft with a bad link to the road/track i.e. a step at  
each end of the bridge/raft. obstacle=unevenness ? or obstacle=step?  
For me unevenness is to soft for what you describe.

- a hole in the road.
  * A small hole you can drive other at full speed but that may  
surprise you when driving during night.
  * A medium hole where you have to use the other side of the road at  
full speed if nobody is arriving in front

  * A big hole where you have to slow down and drive inside.
(For full uneven sections, I use smoothness=*).
- a road on a dam or a bridge have been damaged : a bailey bridge  
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailey_bridge) have been temporary (for  
ten years ;-) ) added on it.


I would no use obstacle for thinks that are deliberate and/or in their  
initial state.


For river and water. If there is water year around (or large fraction  
of the year) : ford=yes. Only flooded few days a year (after heavy  
rain), flood_prone=yes. Use surface=* to indicate whenever you are  
just driving in the river or if there is some raft build. Seasonal?  
Use seasonal=yes in conjunction with access:conditional=* to indicate  
approximative closing period (discussed recently on this mailing list.  
I will update the wiki according soon...).


Same with traffic_calming, check points...

HOT is also dealing with obstacle :
