Consider https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/42.85888/-73.77169. As I
write this, I-87 is annotated as having 3 lanes south of the on/off
ramps (south of 146). However, the off ramp starts all the way back at
the Sitterly Road overpass, and the on ramp doesn't fully merge until
just before the emergency vehicle turn-around only slightly north of
said overpass. Accordingly, there are actually four lanes for these
stretches.
What is the correct way to model this?
It's hard for me to explain so try the example in
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/87518597#map=14/42.8442/-73.7720 on
for size?
Thanks! In particular, TIL about the `placement` tag. Actually, the
proposal page for that is rather helpful.
A couple notes, though: you missed a transition, and IIUC, the `turns`
should instead be `|||slight_right`, since there is no explicit
'straight only' marking. (Strictly speaking, there is no *explicit*
marking for 'slight right' either, but it's implied by the fact that
you're in a turn lane. I wonder if we should have a way to tag that
separately? Anyway, I would hope that having the lane so tagged — I also
tagged the on ramps |||merge_left — will encourage tools to not
gratuitously route into those lanes only to need to leave them
immediately, i.e. a better and more correct version of merge prohibition.)
Anyway, I hopefully cleaned up most of the stuff for the on/off ramps
here. (Hmm, I skipped the north-most on ramp though, maybe I'll do that
one later.)
It seems I need to take a look at JOSM, I've been wanting something that
actually renders lanes... BTW, my "ultimate" goal, potentially, is to
have fully and correctly modeled lane placement and connectivity. I'm
working on traffic simulation with SUMO and basically need to be able to
do perfect imports from OSM without having to clean up the network
afterward. Plus, it can't hurt routing engines for this stuff to be correct.
