Hi Ian and Thorsten,
I was also thinking that there may be instances where the grade is not signed but is known from things like brochures etc. This may well be mainstream information from the operator but not located on site.

I have tried to summarise the discussion and it seems like there is some consensus around the following tagging >hiking_scale:awtgs= as the general tag for the grade of the WHOLE track as that is what is detailed in the AWTGS guidelines >and >source:hiking_scale:awtgs= for the source of the data with values such as >* source:hiking_scale:awtgs=user - Where a user has defined the grading >* source:hiking_scale:awtgs=operator - Where the grading has been applied by the operator of the track (and the operator should also be applied to the track) >* source:hiking_scale:awtgs=as_signed - Where the data has come from a sign located at the start of the track >There has also been some discussion on sections of track being graded as well. I think this needs further work as it doesn?t seem to match the guidelines and may also depend on how operators have defined the tracks >ie Is the Larapinta ?Track? all graded the same or are ?sections? rated differently? I know in the case of Tasmania the Overland Track that PWS has a single grading for the whole track but some other websites have >graded each ?section/days travel?. >There also needs to some further clarification if this goes on the ways or relations in regards to longer defined tracks with relations. >If we are close then I reckon an updated wiki with these values on both >https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australia/Walking_Tracks and >https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Tagging_Guidelines#Bush_Walk ing_and_Cycling_Tracks >Cheers - Phil That sounds great to me Phil (nearly ready for me to reapply my deleted tags). However, I'm not sure I understand the difference between your suggested sources "operator" and "as_signed". I suggested "as-signed", but surely the operator is the body that installs the signs - so wouldn't they normally mean the same thing ? regards Ian
