[Talk-ca] Joining Trails to roads.
As my previous e-mail I've been playing around with routing based on pedestrian and cycling. I'd say, in my area, 1 in 20 trails are connected to the roads. I checked the Toronto and Brampton area. Same issue. Trails that cross roads, need to have a connecting node. Also they need to join up with a road. Most trails don't join with the road but they need to for the routing to work. Also my solution for trails that end at a parking lot. I've been just pulling the trail around the perimeter of the parking lot till we get to the road. (that way routing works) Since I didn't know trails needed to be connected to roads, I thought I'd mention it. Is there any way we can reach all the editors of the GTA area? As they have a lot of trails falling in this category. Example: Michael ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca

I use IE with http://keepright.ipax.at it finds all sorts of things that need correcting but you can limit it to pick out these. Getting hold of all the editors in a particular region, very unlikely some only edit for one session for a start. Cheerio John On 29 July 2010 09:24, G.

That sites assume! Most problems you can't obviously see, so it's going to be a big help. How often is the data updated?
