Not everything is tagged for the purpose of being rendered, nor should it. > I think the most generally-usable structure is a single way with lane info. > This could be done with tags (and probably needs to be, to start with), > though you might hope that editors would find a way of presenting it so that > it looks like a set of parallel ways with tied nodes. We basically need to treat ways as a special type of relation, one that has a number of lanes which can be tagged independent of the way otherwise inherent the tags of the way. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
