Yeah I haven't seen anyone in my area using US:KS in ref tags. I've been putting it in the network tag of the route relations I've started creating but I'm the only one working on that In Kansas right now. > The wiki also explicitly says that you should use the two-character postal > abbreviation for the state the road is in, but that seems to have been > disregarded in states where a different prefix (like SR) is normally > used.

I see at least one highway in Kansas has been tagged with "K-10" - I'm guessing most people would consider that flat out wrong? :) I guess that is how people refer to it when speaking but I've been using ref tags like "KS 10" _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
