But because "living street" has a precise legal definition in Europe, involved mappers chose not to confuse the issue by using a different one. Then there was the question of differentiating large residential streets from minor ones... Some bright spark took initiative by tagging a large part of Dakar's residential streets as highway=service - that has been universally perceived as a very bad idea. I mostly just highway=residential with a surface=* tag but now that you remind me of those discussion, I'm thinking that a key differentiator is the presence of a sidewalk. What about: highway=residential surface=ground sidewalk=no Doesn't that feel like Africa already ? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
