[Talk-GB] missing road (edinburgh)
There should be a road, just north of Union Canal Towpath, connecting Dundee Terrace (bottom left) with East Fountainbridge (top right). http://www.informationfreeway.org/?lat=55.94184853520736lon=-3.2138223571634574zoom=16layers=B000F000 The ways are in the DB. Any ideas why it isn't showing on the map? Maplint appears not to know about it either. ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk-gb
[Talk-GB] Edinburgh Party Progress
As I can't make it to the Edinburgh Mapping Event this weekend [1] I thought I'd bug Dave [2] and ask him to do a progress map [3] for Edinburgh. Central Edinburgh, Aug 2006, Feb 2007 and Aug 2007 http://dev.openstreetmap.org/~random/progress/?region=edinburgh Wider Edinburgh Area, same dates http://dev.openstreetmap.org/~random/progress/?region=edinburgh-wide Enjoy the weekend and many thanks to Dave for the maps, Murray.

[Talk-GB] Bridges (Edinburgh)
I've noticed many bridges around Edinburgh appear to be done using three seperate Ways See George IV Bridge, and also Castle Terrace if you pan to the left a little. http://tinyurl.com/298f7t * way_before_bridge * way_for_bridge * way_after_bridge all three have highway and name attributes set to identical values with the middle one also having bridge=yes. Mapnik appears to be able to deal with this, but the informationfreeway / [EMAIL PROTECTED] appear to get confused and render the street name three times (once per way), which tends to look rubbish. But it also seems wrong and over-complicating things to me. Would it not be better to have: * one way for the whole of the street, with highway and name set. * A second Way for the segments covering the bridge with the only attribute being bridge=yes (and name= if the bridge itself has a name distinct from the road). Yes/No? Also, on a related topic. Say I have Ways created in a loop to define a Park, and use the same segments to create a second Way for a path around the boundary of the park. I cannot fathom how to control which way is selected when I click in JOSM. It appears to pick one, and I am unable to select the other. If the two ways have some different segments, you can often work around this, but when they share the same segments, I'm stuck. ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk-gb
