Re: [Tagging] Default values for surface by road category and country

What I am searching for is a wiki page that tells me which roads do have default values and what are these default values in which countries. Without doubt most "highway=x" have no "surface=y" in OSM because the mappers assume that certain road categories do have certain default surface values.

In Europe I think. In other countries of other continents there's no pavement on all the main highways. OSM is "universal" so the scheme should not have values by default asking only one part of the World Salut i mapes (Health and Maps) yopaseopor On Sat, Sep 21, 2019 at 1:53 PM Joseph
