Re: [Talk-us] Trunk vs motorway for rural Interstates with grade crossings

2013-07-21 Thread Clay Smalley
I remember this specific issue being brought up multiple times before. It's
been my understanding that this is the consensus: the pieces of I-10 and
I-40 in West Texas should be trunk wherever they have at-grade
intersections, because they have multiple at-grade intersections and not a
single rare one.

I'm willing to go with this, because tagging them as motorway seems like an
issue of tagging for the renderer, or otherwise making a special exception
because the highway happens to be an Interstate. There are a few other
cases where Interstates with at-grade intersections are tagged as trunk
(e.g. Holland Tunnel approach, and I-70 in Breezewood, PA). These cases
tend to have traffic lights, but the West Texas Interstates don't seem like
too different of a case to me.

If it has more than an exceptionally rare at-grade junction, it should be a
trunk.  If it's not divided, it should be a trunk even if it doesn't have
at-grade junctions.

We had excellent turnout yesterday in San Francisco with almost 20 people in 
Code for America's Ben Franklin room. We got a lot of newcomers who had 
attended the June SOTM and were interested in contributing, a near 50/50 gender 
balance (!!!), and a handful of traditional GIS & education people who were 
looking for connections to the OSM world. Attendees worked on a bunch of 
projects: cycling route relations in Kansas City, building import process for 
SF, highly-detailed parking lot models for San Ramon, addresses and business in 
San Jose, and automated detection of unmapped suburbs from Telenav probe data 
(not public).

Do you mean Control+Drag to scroll the window? I've seen control+drag doing
weird things in the last month or so but option+drag has never really done
anything specific.
