In Australia unclassified usually only applies to rural roads, at least that's what was agreed upon before I was involved, although the Europeans also use it for industrial areas that are wider/straighter than their narrow windy little residential streets. As a result any routing software made by Europeans will favour unclassified over residential. > 2) service otherwise (unnamed or restricted access) These days all public roads should be named, this was part of the renumbering of rural properties thing to uniquely identify places, the road number + road name + closest locality. _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
