Hi Bryce, If find your example really good, thank you to have find such a nice place :)
I don't agree to use highway=* + utility_wires because of the lack of information it introduces. The member nodes of the highway=* way won't reflect the real position of (and some other details about) the poles supporting utilities networks beside the road. Since only the render is affected by such a level of details, only the render should be updated. Those power lines can be selected by their voltage=low tag. As it has already been discussed here and on several wiki Talk pages, voltage - not the one but part of - some serious scale factors to get the importance of power lines. Currently, power lines are concerned by a few proposals : https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Power_supports_refinement https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Power_paths_refinement All the best *François Lacombe* fl dot infosreseaux At gmail dot com www.infos-reseaux.com @InfosReseaux <http://www.twitter.com/InfosReseaux> 2015-03-11 23:20 GMT+01:00 Bryce Nesbitt <bry...@obviously.com>: > Have a peek at: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/37.64529/-118.97450 > > Where individual residential power lines are rendered in a cluttered way. > What dividing line can the tagging offer here, to allow rendering to make > better choices? > Here the mapper made some attempt to call these residential lines, but not > enough > to dissuade osm-carto. > > --- > Separately,what do people think of this "lite" power tagging scheme as a > solution? > > *highway*={any} > *utility_wires*={overhead,underground,none,unknown} > > _______________________________________________ > Tagging mailing list > Tagging@openstreetmap.org > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging > >
