Hi all, I am not sure if this list is monitored by the maintainers of routing engines that use OSM? I wanted to draw attention to https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_tags_for_routing. This page seemed to have very little bearing on what is actually used. It came up recently on either IRC or another mailing list, and Richard Fairhurst added the warning that is now heading section 1.2 of the page.
I just edited this page some more to add the 1.1 section on 'actual usage'. For now it contains a section on Telenav with a link to a child page I just created with some information on tag usage for the Scout apps. My hope is that this page, or some template we can agree on, will be used by other routing engine owners to supply a similar set of information. I realize that many engines allow the end user to tweak how routing results are calculated, but there should be some minimal set of information on tag usage based on defaults? The OSM tags for routing page could use much more cleanup, I think. I'd rather have it only reflect actual usage by well established routing engines only. Thoughts? -- Martijn van Exel OSM data specialist Telenav http://www.osm.org/user/mvexel http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Mvexel http://hdyc.neis-one.org/?mvexel _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
