Re: [Tagging] Underground power lines in tunnel

Hi, I agree with you Martin. And that's why I'm looking for a way to say "those power lines/lanes/roads are on the same bridge/tunnel". As you mentionned, the tunnel/bridge name can precise which bridge is but it's not a relational (or even spatial) way of bringing objets together. Ok a tunnel i

Hi Murry, being yet another German I'm afraid I still don't buy into the proposal. I guess this has a lot to do with both cultural and language differences. Also some background to start with. For many people in at least continental Europe bread is a basic food and a key component of the daily di

Then you still have to define what is one "tunnel", maybe also 2 (or more) distinct tubes could qua

One reason it would be useful to be able to tag bridges (and, to a lesser extent, tunnels) as single physical objects is that they may be used as landmarks. For example, you may be traveling along a street that runs parallel to a river, looking for a location just past a certain bridge. If the

Martin, John, Can't we get the type=tunnel or type=bridge proposal voted and accepted ? It need a little clean up and example of different kind but it seems to be a good way to map tunnel and bridges. Finally asking for comments and vote it is the best way to be sure of it. Fly, Tunnel and bri
