I'd like to create a node where I first see a "No > Trespassing" sign (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:No_trespassing_sign.jpg). > > Should I tag the node access=private [+source=* +source_ref=*]?

The "no trespassing" sign does not mean "you may not be (exactly) here" but "you may not go beyond this point". The access tag thus should be on the way beyond the sign, in my opinion. -- André Engels, andreeng...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
