I just draw footway separately, simply because they are off the road
several meters and sometimes goes in opposite directions.

Cheers,
Peter.

Nice, I've got the same here (but not yet mapped).

I would do it like this.

I think the highway=steps express already that one way is slightly above
the other one. I don't see a real need to add this "is higher than"
information since we may use srtm data for visualizing this.

Three ways, middle one is highway=residential+footway=no, explicit links
between the ways where there is a connection (highway=steps). I don't think
footway=yes|no is properly documented, but it is referred to in a few
places, and I haven't come across an alternative tagging for it.

[OSM-talk] Residential road on a hill

2009-10-07 Thread Arlindo Pereira
Hi there,

there's a residential road on a hill near my house (this one:
http://osm.org/go/OVc0itC2c- ) that doesn't go from bottom to the top of it,
but runs in a longitudinal way. The thing it that it's sidewalks are not in
the same level. It's more or less like this:

___
   |___
   |___
 a b c

Where b is the road itself and a and c are it's sidewalks. Those | (the
height difference from the road itself and the sidewalks) vary from 1 to 4
meters aproximately. Every 20 meter or so, there are some steps so that
people can go from a or c to b and cross the street.

How would you map this? Three lines, highway=residential and highway=footway
(or pedestrian?) with it's steps? If so, how would you express that this
highway=residential has no sidewalks? How would you express that a is higher
than b that is higher than c? I'm aware that level=* is used when things
cross, that doesn't seem to be the case.

Cheers,
