Also a factor being that a lot of apps are favoring traffic integration rather than speed limits or omits them for no reason even though it's in the data, even when they are easily decipherable (no maxspeed:variable=school/signals or maxspeed:forward/backward) for like, no reason. Personally, I find this trend undesirable, since the herd mentality tends to cause speed creep; anybody who's been on a busy freeway and driving something incapable of exceeding the speed limit or just takes great pride in driving like they learned how can probably relate. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
[OSM-talk] School project Ghana
Dear friends, Open Street Maps Ghana is looking for educational material like (prinable / ofline) workbooks to educate children on JHS and SHS schools. Aim is to educat children about the imporance of having a good street map and spread the knowligde of mapping in Ghana. Doesanybody know if such educational material is availeble (outside the online tutorials on the wiki,that are often are not suiteble for children is the age group of JHS an SHS. Hope to hear your reactions soon. Alert Bouterse ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] Max speed forward/backward
Thanks Paul. There's a lot of split speed limits here in the valley (Arizona.) I've worked hard mapping quite a few. Would love for more services to show them.
