Hi! Here in Spain we have some doubts about mapping traffic islands. As you can read in the wiki a traffic island is "A structure separating at least two lanes of a highway from each other for a short distance. The width of the calming island is usually under a few meters and should be less than 5m." But in the abstract you can read: "An island is a small area that temporarily separates two different directions of traffic. " . Here it is the doubt. Can I map a traffic island if there is only painted on the road? Spanish traffic regulations are clear: you cannot stop, park or drive in (the regulation assumes it doesn't matter if it is only painted or with bollards or with kerb ). But some Spanish mappers considers as the wiki says in one sentence the word STRUCTURE a only-painted-on-the-road is not a traffic island and should not be mapped.
What do you think? If all are traffic islands instead with structure or not and should be mapped, Can anyone modify0 from the wiki the word "structure" or specify "only painted also" ?
