Re: [talk-au] foot/bicycle = yes/designated (was Re: TfNSW Cycleways use in OSM)
My understanding is as follows: yes means that there is the legal right to use something e.g. you have the right to walk by foot on a sidewalk. designated means that there is a legal instrument (generally signage and/or possibly road marking depending on your state) that *specifically* gives you permission to use a given feature. For instance, a shared path is one which bicycles and pedestrians can legally use together, and this is designated by a shared path sign (AU:R8-2 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File%3AAustralia_R8-2.svg?wprov=sfla1). In this case it would be appropriate for a shared pathway to have both foot and bicycle be set to designated in my opinion. Theoretically you could add foot=yes to every sidewalk and/or footway however my understanding is this key is implied, and will also throw and error in osmose. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

This view is backed up by what https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access says about designated So in ACT the footpath would be bicycle=yes since bicycles are allowed on the footpath, but it's not a designated path for bicycles. A cyclepath would be bicycle=designated since it's signposted/designed for that mode of transport. Same goes for wheelchair=yes/designated (okay for wheelchairs vs. signposted for wheelchairs), or lanes:bus=yes/designated, one says the bus can use the lane, the other says it's an explicit/signposted bus lane. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au

[talk-au] TfNSW Cycleways use in OSM
Hey all! TfNSW's recent waiver-signing gave us access to their Cycleways dataset ( https://opendata.transport.nsw.gov.au/dataset/cycleway-data ) which includes shapefiles and information about cycle paths, shared paths, cycle lanes, and shared lanes. The data is quite detailed ( see https://opendata.transport.nsw.gov.au/system/files/resources/NSW%20Cycle%20Data%20Guide.pdf ) covering everything from lit= to operator=. There's been discussions about this dataset and its place in OSM on the OSM World Discord server ( https://discord.gg/q6HnfNZ #asia-pacific ) and we think we should present to you lot for discussion. Here's a summary of the consensus so far: - The metadata about the ways is useful in OSM, but the shapefiles aren't accurate enough for an import. The data is also too old to be considered for a direct import (some ways date to 2009!) - The metadata, however, is extremely useful to apply to existing ways. An editor could load up a separate layer, manually review the tags before selectively copying them over, or compare the data with OSM to highlight potentially unmapped ways. In line with this, I've drafted an osmosis TagTransform file that can turn the raw TfNSW dataset (after being run through JOSM's OpenData plugin, for example) and turn it into the usual OSM tagging schema. Check it out: https://gist.github.com/QuarkTheAwesome/bcaddee7a5d0dae5191a2124960e24ea There's some notes at the top of the file, please read them! After discussion on Discord, it's been changed to not output name, alt_name, or cycleway:difficulty:tfnsw (a new tag to describe TfNSW's low, medium, high ratings). ref:tfnsw - which is the OBJECTID inside the dataset - is also being considered for removal. This is also being written up in a wiki page: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/TfNSW_Cycleways_Data That page has the procedures we've been using to generate an .osm file to muck around with in JOSM.

What about a stockpile? And material=gravel/dirt/sand/...? I have seen piles like that before, however I've not heard them called a gravel pit, and my first thought was a quarry.
