Hi, As a German I am not sure if I understand what shoulder means. In Germany we have a traffic_sign "Seitenstreifen nicht befahrbar" and one with a pictogram: http://images.google.de/imgres?imgurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wolkdirekt.com%2Fimages%2F600%2F536052%2Fverkehrsschild-nach-stvo-typ-1-nr-388-seit

[Tagging] highway=crossing and crossing=*

Hi all, again and again I find roads tagged with highway=crossing instead of highway=footway [+ footway=crossing] or maybe highway=cycleway [+ cycleway=crossing] I think the wiki pages for highway=crossing and crossing=* are too confusing. While the tag wiki for highway=crossing is clear tha

[Tagging] highway=residential road

Hi all, in the last days a few newby mappers started to map highway="residential road" . They all contribute to #hotosm tasks, so it seems that the hints for these projects suggest to use this tagging. Can anybody from HOT check this, please ? Gerd __

Re: [Tagging] How can I display maxspeed on my Garmin?

Well, the default style rules in mkgmap evaluate maxspeed to calculate a so called road speed value which is used by the Garmin routing algo. But we don't know any way to store the value in the map so that it woud show up in the device when you pass the node. I know that modern Garmin maps h
