Curves can already be detected by routers (they are in the data), pedestrian crossing (with and without traffic lights) should be mapped explicitly (in the 1 road, 2 sidewalks model it would be a way from 1 sidewalk to the other). Realtime traffic information (time of day, amount of traffic) is a general issue that one day we might be able to solve, given enough real time data input. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
