IMHO we shouldn't "avoid" splitting as it will tend to make our data less consistent. Think about ways under the bridge. Also we are already splitting the ways for lots of reasons (routes and turn_restrictions, changing attributes like maxspeed, surface, width, lanes, oneway, lit, etc.), there is really no point in not splitting at bridges (IMHO). It would require everyone to do expensive ST_Within queries to determine simple stuff like where on the road is a bridge and which object is above which. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
