True, but a better map is of course http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/61348 If you didn't have a sticker and wanted to be 100% legal then you could park just outside the zone and walk five minutes to the conference location. Having said that, there's quite a number of cars on the roads here without a green sticker and nobody seems to give a damn. Might be different for foreign cars though. > My experience is that at a TüV-office it is no problem to get a sticker > for a foreign car. Provided the car meets the environmental standards, which is generally a non-issue for petrol cars but if you have a diesel that's older than about 10 years or so, you might not be so lucky. My car required an EUR 2000 investment before I could sign up for a green sticker ;) Bye Frederik -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail frede...@remote.org ## N49°00'09" E008°23'33" ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Or mapped as a relation in OSM: http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/61348 Is there no layer yet for the environmentzones?

[OSM-talk] SOTM-EU 2014 visitors by car from outside of Germany: environment stickers
Hi, For those who are coming by car to SOTM-EU 2014 in Karlsruhe, and especially for those who do not come from Germany, please be aware that in many cities you need an environmental sticker. See [1] for more information, and see [2] for a basic map. It also includes the conference area. Nowadays, you need a green sticker for Karlsruhe, so if you currently have a yellow or even a red one, you're out of luck. My experience is that at a TüV-office it is no problem to get a sticker for a foreign car. It took only 15 to 30 minutes or so. If you apply for a sticker in your own country, it might take a little longer, so your best bet is to look for a TüV-office in Germany.
