I double checked GA400, US78, and GA316 and they fall in the Urban Freeways and Expressways where they are exclusively limited access. So after going back through the definitions from the FHWA documents, here is a revised crosswalk. let me know what you think Rural Interstate Principal Arterial - highway:motorway Rural Principal Arterial - highway:trunk Rural Minor Arterial - highway:primary Rural Major Collector - highway:secondary Rural Minor Collector - highway:tertiary Rural Local Road - highway:residential Urban Interstate Principal Arterial - highway:motorway Urban Freeways and Expressways - highway:motorway Urban Principal Arterial - highway:primary Urban Minor Arterial - highway:secondary Urban Collector Street - highway:tertiary Urban Local Street - highway:residential I'd consider setting “Rural Local road” as highway=unclassified. Otherwise, it looks great to me. -Alex mauer “hawke” signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us

How is there even an argument there? track is for cars and always has been, while path is for not-cars and always has been. There's an ongoing thread on the newbies list about tracks and paths not rendering in the cyclemap layer. It's basically a rehash of the code for accuracy, not for the renderer.

The start of the thread is at http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/newbies/2009-September/003522.html how hard is it (either technically or politically) to get the major renderers to adapt to needs like this? as i understand it, the paved/unpaved topic has much the same issue. (and i'd like to be able to tell my new-to-osm friends that they'll someday be able to actually see the results of adding unpaved tags.) paul =- paul fox, p...@foxharp.boston.ma.us (arlington, ma, where it's 55.4 degrees) ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
