Now, I've looked again at the Oxomoa scheme proposal which already
suggested an idea to differentiate between different bus route
types by using the key "bus". Are there any arguments against this
approach? We should only discuss possible values such as
long_distance or intercity, suburban, urban, school, shuttle,
express, train_replacement etc.
the key "bus" is already used nearly a million times:
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/bus#values
<https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/bus#values>
it is used as an access tag and also to say which kind of vehicle
stops at a public_transport platform / stop.
Common values are:
"yes" 98%
"no" 0,5%
"designated" 0,5%
"urban" 0,1%
"unofficial" 0,1%
I agree the values you propose can be interesting, especially
long_distance, train_replacement (although this is generally a
temporary thing for hyperactive high density mapping areas), school,
urban, "shuttle"
I wouldn't suburban, but would see them included in urban
intercity is also somehow unclear, as cities might be very close
together (i.e. it's kind of "urban") or very far away. "long_distance"
seems less ambiguous (althoug it is also relative, maybe your list
lacks some kind of "regional" which can be used both, in metropolitan
and in rural areas for "medium" distance routes).
On the other hand, while the distinction by function (school,
train_replacement, shuttle, express) is not (clearly) inferrable from
other properties, the distance travelled and the admin entities served
can easily be gotten from looking at the actually route.
Cheers,
Martin
