[Tagging] Mapping overlapping Pedestrian areas?

2015-08-11 Thread johnw
Places where Pedestrian areas overlap are very difficult for me to map and also render very badly. I was wondering if someone has some suggestions on how to map this area https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=19/35.77740/140.31301

2015-08-11 Thread johnw
A few months ago, someone enabled admin level 3 on regional boundaries in Japan. This is an error, but I don’t know how to deal with it. Admin level 3 boundaries are reserved for future for “states” of Japan. The regions currently have historical names, but just like “So-cal” or “New England

[Tagging] Sidewalk=none vs sidewalk=no

2015-08-11 Thread Andrew MacKinnon
Which is better, sidewalk=none or sidewalk=no? It seems like none is more popular but no probably makes more sense because it is similar to the tagging schemes used for other things like foot=no and bicycle=no. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreet

Hi I presume the upper levels have a protective barrier such as a wall. Would that help? I've mapped a bridge as pedestrian area (closed way + area=yes) Unfortunately some entities below render through. Try it out - see if it works Dave F. On 11/08/2015 11:41, johnw wrote: Places where Pe
