Re: [Tagging] Access tags on areas containing highway=*
Practically I don't think it will work, as it requires much more data to be processed in the preprocessing - I therefore agree with Martin. But I think an intermediate solution should and could work: If all entrances to the area are not accessible (e.g. gates, lift-gates and such), adding access=no/private to them should work. Personally I would consider routers to be buggy when they ignore barriers tagged on nodes of the way, while I would accept them not to do geometrical calculations between areas and ways. Keep in mind though, that e.g. for forests often access is only allowed on the highways that cross it. Access=no at the forest area would - following your argumentation - imply access=no on any highway crossing it, which will fail in most situations, because nobody explicitly states access=yes to the highway in these cases. regards Peter Am 20.03.2014 06:39, schrieb bulwersator: Is it reasonable to expect that well tagged road contains all access tags necessary to check whatever it is accessible?

Yes, and it shouldn't be a goal to inherit access tags from surrounding areas. Even if mappers would consistently set layer=* on the way with the access tags, the one encircling that area, so that it would match the roads' layers, it's far too easy to have a bridge or anything inside that should, or shouldn't inherit the tags. Likely not on the proving grounds, but elsewhere. -- Alv ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
