I think having it on the relation is a great idea, especially since adding the tags to all the road segments sounds like an insane amount of tagging . Is this something that we should ask Phil to create a formal proposal page for the tags, so we can start adding symbol key values to relations? I think the hard thing is to actually get things tagged.
the basic scheme doesn't require anything new or unusual in route relation tagging, just care and consistency.
The only suggestion I have is that we make it able to handle two or three - as putting the ref in a symbol is good, but we should be able to add a second one as well, to cover different situations where the relation is part of an even larger system (like the California scenic highway system, or similar.) - or would that just be another single icon applied to a different relation (or super-relation) that shares some of the segments, and they just both get their single symbol rendered? In some cases the symbol rendered would not need to use the ref from the road.
well, multiple relations are handled decently in Phil's system. here is an example from Albany & Rensselaer NY: http://bl.ocks.org/ToeBee/raw/6119134/#14/42.6351/-73.7394 where you can see interstate shields, US highway shields, NY state highway shields, and county route shields (the blue pentagonal shields). note the primary of US 9 & US 20; there is a relation for each of those highways and Phil's code handles the case well. more specialized shields are handled as well; here is an example of a NY State parkway system shield on the Taconic State Parkway: http://bl.ocks.org/ToeBee/raw/6119134/#15/42.2525/-73.6169 richard -- rwe...@averillpark.net Averill Park Networking - GIS & IT Consulting OpenStreetMap - PostgreSQL - Linux Java - Web Applications - Search
