Hmm I think its way better to have a good description of the surface than introducing vehicle-type specific usability-tags. This way the client (printing/routing-app, etc) can decide which sort of surface to use. For example I have no problem using fine/medium gravel tracks with my "normal" bike at all, while others on this list would tag such ways as "bicycle_suitable=mtb"... And what about incline? is it part of the "bicycle_suitable" tag or not? I think its better to invest the time in better surface tagging than, rather than subjectively tagging things that are only of use for one specific group of users. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
