Re: [Talk-GB] Google Maps using Sustrans Cycling data
Hi A_snail, please be aware that the relevant NCN 4 data is already stored within the relation so there it no need to duplicate data as you are currently doing - it saves time reduces confusion. I've already contacted you via the website but you failed to respond continued to add erroneous data. Thanks Dave F.

Where I work in Bristol, there are quite a lot of cycle lanes not referenced on the Sustrans/Google map and not in OSM. So, I added some in last night following the suggestions on the http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Cycleway page. So far so good. What is the best way to check the changes are working correctly? Normally I just view the standard OSM map about half an hour after I upload the changes and I can see new paths or roads etc, but something as subtle as a bike lane that goes in the opposite way along an existing one way road isn't shown. Will the cycle map when it next gets updated (which I gather can be a while) show the changes? Are there other ways other than the cycle map and viewing the attributes of the road to view the changes?

I thought it NCN14 was complete all the way to Newcastle, so I will ride it one weekend once summer arrives.. You'd be very welcome. :) It's not unusable, just a little patchy. You can see on OpenCycleMap that it NCN14 stops completely at the Millennium Bridge and only continues at the Tyne Tunnel: http://www.opencyclemap.org/?zoom=15lat=54.9684lon=-1.59729layers=B00 --- By the way Richard Mann responded to this thread too, but forgot to CC talk-gb, he said: Richard Mann wrote I have a higher-level contact, and will ask.

Does that read just the relation data? In Bristol users have been tagging links to NCN 4 (signposted on the ground with the number in brackets) with the ncnref tag. This just adds confusion when displayed on the maps. We need a way to distinguish links from the actual routes.

We need a way to distinguish links from the actual routes. In the recent thread about the Dft England Cycling Data it was suggested that signed link routes could be added with the ref in brackets, as it /should/ appear on the signs: e.g. *ncn_ref=(4)* on ways, or *ref=(4)* on any link routes large enough to warrant a relation.

There's an about this map link at the bottom right that explains what it's using, that points to: http://cycling.lonvia.de/en/help/about Obviously that's just one use of the data. I think that the official UK tagging guideline is here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Cycle_routes#United_Kingdom but I'm not actually a cyclist - I just stumble across these brown and orange signs when out walking!
