I am going even further by saying ideally a landuse=residential/industrial/commercial/retail polygon should not incorporate any public road at all. I agree that this way of mapping means significantly more work initially, but it leads to better (less "forgotten" / "overlooked" different landuses) and more detailed data afterwards and it is much easier to edit and more clear what is going on. Atomic mapping (smaller patches instead of huge polygons) also leads to fewer version numbers and to a clearer history, and to faster rendering/processing times for high zoom levels (you only have to look at the actually interesting data and not the data "out of sight" but in the same polygon). a wider acceptance / mapping of landuse=highway for the legal highway (or in other words, the gap between the above mentioned landuses in built-up areas) would sure help getting this done earlier. cheers, Martin
