Yes, the tram is a good example for sharing nodes. But i forgot to describe this more precisely: this ways are all highways. If you drive by car, a street it is always the same, has the same name and speed. Sometimes it's part of a trunk or a special touristic route, but this can descibed by tags. I personally can't imagine that theres a good reason why highway-ways share the same nodes, but my way of thinking might be wrong. I will accept this and find a solution for my database. Thank's to all for the answers. Stefan _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
