Re: [Talk-ca] Road route relations: network tag

[Martijn van Exel]

Just ran the overpass query again and we're down to 1421 relations with
underscore network tags, from 2313 yesterday.

For those interested the query is

area[name=Canada]->.canada;
relation
  ["route"="road"]["network"~"..\_.+"](area.canada);
out;

This does not give you any geometry.

ca_... has been the long-standing standard. When I last looked at it, 
the US was the main user of colons. It's possible this has changed, but 
ca_on_county is still one of the most frequent network tag values 
(http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/network=ca_on_county), and there 
may be consumers who expect this.
