Nor am I. Choosing to model distinct, disparate, and incompatible traffic flows as a single flow when they are separated by paint, but as discrete flows when they are separated by anything other than paint, strikes me as an inconsistency for a traffic flow model. I'd also like to defend the concept of a single-way-per-lane model as a noble goal rather than a pedantic endeavor. There are useful concepts that I'd like to convey that I cannot, due to the current multiple-lanes-per-way model. While acknowledging the cost (in time and effort) of implementing it, I'd submit that a single-way-per-lane model is the penultimate model of traffic flow. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
