Re: [Talk-us] Update on highway shield rendering
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. -James ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us

Re: [Talk-us] Update on highway shield rendering
I could fix the PA Turnpike relation with the US:PA:Turnpike network tag in a moment. Would that work instead of just fixing the name tags for both directions? I only split it up because it was getting close to 1,000 ways and thought it would be easier to edit in the future having two smaller relations, one for each direction. -James Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2013 09:14:40 -0400 From: phi...@pobox.com To: talk-us@openstreetmap.org Subject: Re: [Talk-us] Update on highway shield rendering * James Mast rickmastfa...@hotmail.com [2013-07-10 03:18 -0400]: 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)? 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.) ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us

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.

Re: [Talk-us] Update on highway shield rendering
Well, I've found a bug in the rendering engine. What's up with these US 1-9 shields? http://elrond.aperiodic.net/shields/?zoom=16lat=35.52081lon=-79.18442layers=B Is it because there are two different US 1 relations tagged on those ways? http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/11177 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?

As I documented at http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/Highway-Shield-Rendering-tt5612357.html#a5640994 , I think there's definitely a consensus around putting the banner in the network. I don't recall anybody proposing doing both (which seems redundant on multiple levels). 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. ___ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
