why doing it manually would be preferable? Is it repeating mistake of adding pointless work for mappers because it "causes extra preprocessing for routing software."? And valuing time of mappers as worth nothing? (PTv2 asks mappers to do something derivable from highway=bus_stop location and roads within bus relation, massive amount of work of mappers wasted to do preprocessing manually https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?oldid=625726 ) Why https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/24034881 needs to be preprocessed manually? The same for https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1111788729 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/118390194 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/233305340 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/119380508 (all examples from the proposal) Or is it justifiable because it is outright impossible to do reliably with automatic preprocessing? (that is the justification for https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:dual_carriageway%3Dyes ) If yes, can you give examples where it would be beneficial and explicitly ask to introduce such tagging solely in cases where preprocessing is doomed to fail? If it is second case of preprocessing being impossible - why do massive duplication and ask to duplicate ref value AND name value AND highway value? ------------ Also, I think that https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/119380508 is clearly a sidewalk of that road. 2 gru 2022, 13:31 od supap...@riseup.net: > > > Paths and ways along a road can be mapped separately in OSM, but those > separate geometries cannot be identified as part of the road, or only > with the significant effort of using geometric processing (which most > applications can't perform).
