Hello, Sometimes, some ways are gathered and «baptized» with the same name, but the resulting «street» is not composed of a single line. It's often the case in rural areas when new houses are builded on anonymous and close ways.
In OSM, you can't join the differents segments in one way. And the segments are often made of different characteristics (width, surface...). I've been confronted with that in my first plots. I thought that the solution was to gather the ways in a relation (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/965688) and to give the name to the relation only, but the name of the relation doesn't appear in the rendering. So what is the best practice in such cases ? To tag all the segments with the same name ? Is it however convenient to create a relation to gather all the segments ? Regards, Gauthier
