+1. That's why adjacent landuses (see topic) shouldn't be extented to the center of the road. >> > But with option (b) and a linear way you would have a gap next to the >> road.

In these cases the areas _do_ connect to the road. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
