I think that allowing anything else other than paved and unpaved in surface was
a mistake. Separate paved and unpaved keys should be used for surface details
(surface=paved, paved=asphalt - instead of surface=asphalt, surface=paved,
paved=concrete, concrete=plates - instead of insane surface=con
Dear all,
Mapping holiday flats is interesting, since if I look for a holiday flat at a
location that interests me, I can spot available flats e.g. close to the beach
or the village etc. and access directly to the contact information.
Or, currently there are tags for all kind of accommodation:
Hi Nounours
I know its an American, not an English word, but tourism=apartment has
237 uses.

I agree flat should be the correct term, but maybe too late to change
now.

Sorry for coming late to this discussion. I have been trying to get some
attention to the surface=unpaved rendering issue for some time. Fernando
alerted me that this discussion is now being held in this discussion list.
Essentially the problem is that currently there is no way to alert the users
I understand that, Richard, but my main concern is with rendering.
Like I said, it also affects tag usage by new users, and therefore it
affects map quality and maintenance effort. I think rendering and
routing apps are the two major data consumers from digital maps, and
so we should take both into
I'm quite convinced that it's impossible to pick only one tag or the

I am currently trying to get Osmand's attention to the same problem. The
point is that Mapnik's default rendering style is replicated to other
applications. Indeed, Osmand's style is nearly identical to Mapnik's.
What tag would you use on a section of roadway prone to landslides or fallen
rocks? I am not talking about tagging a currently-known slide, but rather
tagging a potential hazard. Some years ago, I traveled through a region of the
Appalachian mountains where the ground was particularly unstable

The disadvantage of using the su
I like your idea of splitting surface values into paved and unpaved
tags quite a lot, Matthijs. It allows certain values (such as
compacted) to be considered paved or unpaved by different communities,
and it's easy to identify a contradiction (when both tags are
present).
To note, I see the risk y

I think you can clearly see here that we need more different values for

Well, that road is certainly not a good example of what we have in Alaska.
Our unpaved roads are all-weather roads and can tolerate a lot of rain.
