I must admit I was using High=Track based on >>whether it was paved (tarmac) or not. i.e. tarmac would suggest >Highway=Service but looking closer at the wiki it appears that Highway=Service >isn't dependent on this. It would also appear that there has been an import >(source tag) that has tagged Highway=Service in some areas for Farm access.
I would generally always use highway=surface for these, plus surface=unpaved if necessary. The exception is where it appears to be a public road rather than private drive. Diagnostic features for this would include "Give Way" markers on the road, the "T" no through road sign, or a road name. In these cases I would use highway=unclassified. Ncik
