Yes, and it could become a little clearer when there is different tags for a 3 m wide and paved "path" and a 0.3 m wide and unpaved and unmaintained "path". We have x road classes and just one for ways that are not roads (given that footway, cycleway and bridleway are all synonyms of highway=path designated=foo, dedicated=foo, official=foo, etc.). I don't say stuff can't be expressed currently, but it would make the life of mappers, renderers, routers much easier if there was a way to put out the difference. > why not add additional tags to path. path is very generic and we have a > documented visibility tag because it is not working now: we are trying this for years and there is no renderer or other data consumer (AFAIK) that makes a difference. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
