It's common to want to document legal restrictions such as "speed limit 25 miles per hour", "no trucks over 2.5 meters tall", or "maximum weight 3500 kilograms". It's rare to want to query ranges of speeds, heights, or weights, particularly without regard to the units in use in a given country. We should make it easy for people to enter and interpret these legal restrictions, and if it means query software gets a bit more complicated, so be it. For every person who wants to find roads worldwide with speed limits greater than 25 km/h, there are probably a thousand who don't want to deal with making sure the rounding is correct when displaying US speed limits in miles per hour. -- Mark _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
