Re: [Talk-ca] mapping Ottawa light rail stations.

2020-11-25 Thread John Whelan
It looks like the entrances railway=subway_entrance  have been mapped 
but the optional name tag hasn't been added in all cases.  Without the 
name OSMAND struggles to find them.  Parliament subway entrance for 
example is searchable.


If someone is passing (Danny?) could they add the names to the subway 
entrances please.  I'm unable to figure out what they should be.  Lyon 
is missing the names, Parliament has everything labelled parliament. 
Dunno about the others.


Thanks John

Today I wanted to use OSMAND+ to work out the by foot from Lyon station 
to 60 Cambridge street.  There are two entrances / exits to the station 
and I wanted to leave by a particular exit.  The most westerly one.


The route suggested by OSMAND+ was at first glance bizarre but looking 
more closely seems to follow the underground foot ways from the platform 
level which is fine except I was interested in using the elevators.  So 
how do I tell OSMAND+ I wish to go from a particular street level exit?


The second question is should the exits be marked on the map in someway 
that OSMAND can find?


Thanks John
