That's true. But I was simplifying. A
The Facebook team did employ some sort of AI to assist in the
identification of highways but it wasn't always right. And the mappers they
employed didn't know OSM very well. We met with them several times to offer
advice and hints but some of the more active mappers in Thailand are still

If it is a guaranteed 1:1 relationship then there is no point doing it.
Maybe if the

Hello Paul !
The "old" highway tag can give default values to the 5 new tags, so it

Yes you are absolutely right : I need my own renderer to populate the
new tags. I was thinking about putting anything (roads, summits,
footways, towns, trees …) with import

As with OSM tagging, it evolved. So we have things that are not ideal

Fortunately, our situation in eastern Indonesia is much simpler: most
