Re: [Talk-us] Update on highway shield rendering

2013-07-10 Thread James Mast
I'm just curious, but how are you going to add shields for all of the Turnpikes 
out there that have their shield posted alongside another route shield (like 
the PA Turnpike, New York Thruway, Ohio Turnpike as examples)?  Will there need 
to be some tweaks to the relations for those said routes so this can happen?  
If so, I'd be more than willing to do some tweaking at least with the PA 
Turnpike's relation (right now I'm splitting it up into WB and EB for the main 
route) and adding a super relation to also tie in all of the sections that the 
PA Turnpike controls (PA Turnpike 43, PA Turnpike 66, PA Turnpike 576, NE 
Extension I-476, + a segment of the extended I-376 that use to be PA Turnpike 
60).
 
Also, do you guys think for the PA Turnpike XXX routes, that the network 
tag for them should be US:PA:Turnpike (also for the mainline PA Turnpike 
relation and NE Extension)?  I know I would need to spilt up PA-66 and PA-43 
relations since both have segments that aren't part of the PA Turnpike network. 
(Yes, there is a free segment of PA-43 posted with normal PA shields, which is 
between Exit #8 and US-40/US-119.  Have pictures of it, but too tired to dig 
them up and resize to upload right now, so here's a StreetView link instead: 
http://goo.gl/maps/GeZzo)  I was planning on changing them to that network 
when I split them from the non-Turnpike segments.

 Yes.
 
   http://elrond.aperiodic.net/shields/?zoom=16lat=41.23953lon=-80.99077
 
 I've got shields for the PA Turnpike, but a recent edit of yours broke the
 rendering.  :)  See below.  For all that I've got most (hopefully all) of
 New York's parkways prepped, I seem to have missed the New York Thruway;
 I'll have to add that.
 
  Will there need to be some tweaks to the relations for those said routes
  so this can happen?
 
 The way I'm handling this at the moment (documented at
 http://elrond.aperiodic.net/shields/supported.html ) is that the relation
 needs:
 
  * an appropriate network tag, usually one matching the state's routes
(US:PA, US:NJ, etc.);
  * the name tag set to the name of the route; and
  * *no* ref tag
 
 The recent edit to the PA Turnpike added (eastbound) and (westbound)
 to the name tag for the relations, which broke the rendering because it
 just expects name=Pennsylvania Turnpike.  I'm not sure I want to change
 this aspect of the rendering, because Pennsylvania Turnpike is the name
 of the route and Pennsylvania Turnpike (eastbound) is merely the
 designation for a partiular relation.
 
 Also, I note that someone has added ref=NJTP to the New Jersey Turnpike,
 which breaks my rendering there.  I do support ref=initials tags for
 some New York parkways, because that's basically how the signs look, but
 I'm not sure how reasonable it is for the New Jersey Turnpike.  Anyone
 want to offer an opinion here?
 
  Also, do you guys think for the PA Turnpike XXX routes, that the
  network tag for them should be US:PA:Turnpike (also for the mainline
  PA Turnpike relation and NE Extension)?
 
 I've already got shields available for PA routes 43, 66, and 576 under the
 US:PA:Turnpike network.  (Also, the Pennsylvania Turnpike will get a
 shield with either US:PA or US:PA:Turnpike, since I thought a reasonable
 argument could be made for either case.)

That wouldn't affect my rendering as it currently stands.  The rendering,

Pennsylvania Turnpike.

Yeah, the same reason we split national routes on a state-by-state basis.
The practice of putting stuff like I-95 (VA) in the name tag on those
doesn't interfere with my rendering because those relations have ref tags,
even though that's not really the name of the route.

What we really need is a tag like name:relation that the editing tools can
use for labeling things in their UIs when we want something more
descriptive than precise use of the name tag can give us.

an NJTP shield is probably appropriate. the turnpike is _not_ precisely
I-95. Delaware to exit 6 is unsigned NJ route 700 (all signage is NJTP),
Exit 6 to the GWB is signed both I-95 and NJTP.
I-95 is not yet complete in the Philadelphia/South Jersey area so all
the traffic is on the NJTP.

a typical shield is on the wikipedia page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Jersey_Turnpike

in general, drivers on the NJTP think NJTP, not I-95 when they think
about it at all.

No idea why there are two there, maybe somebody thought that they needed to 
keep all of US-1 together in NC, even though some segments are Bypass/Business 
with no vanilla US-1?  
 
Then again, I know US-21 has this happen in Jonesville with the Business route

As I documented at

I don't recall a specific discussion about whether to use the modifier tag
with the banner already in the network tag, but the wiki (at
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/United_States_roads_tagging#Tagging_with_relations
) implies that the modifier tag should duplicate the banner present
elsewhere, and I've seen the practice in OSM data (from at least NE2, but
I'm reasonably sure I've seen other people tagging in this way, too).

Separately from the practice that I've seen, I think that having the
modifer separate as well as in the network tag allows data consumers to
easily work back to the root network while still preserving the
uniqueness constraints for consumers that only process the network and ref
tags.
