Problem number 2... Shibuya Station in Japan.. http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=35.689137,139.700606&z=16 http://www.vimeo.com/5673183 9 Railway lines/platforms Trunk road going over rails expressway going over rails pedestrian deck I just remembered, that nodes attached to ways have the following XML <way id='-7' visible='true'> <nd ref='-2' /> <nd ref='-6' /> </way> What's to stop us tagging the node reference with a width? <way id='-1' visible='true'> <nd ref='-1' width='50' lanes:left='2' lanes:right='3' /> <nd ref='-2' width='40' lanes:left='2' lanes:right='2' /> </way> This is tagging the way, but at the node references. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
