Interesting, and it kept me busy for a while. <br>
<br>
Can I say first of all that I wouldn't want to lose anyone in an
argument over this one. The tree cover is too dense to be sure of
anything, and if it was me mapping it, I'd actually put an
additional road in extending to the East & South from the
isolated section of residential road - I think it goes through the
small deforested areas & joins with the other sections of
highway.<br>
<br>
All of the buildings I can see are of rectangular construction
& judging from the reflections I guess they have corrugated
iron roofs. The materials for these buildings were brought in by
motor vehicle. The clearings appear to have been created with
motor vehicles. It would not be a comfortable ride, but I would
mark most of the highways as residential / unclassified. One way
or another the isolated section of residential highway needs to be
connected to the rest of the highway network by something a motor
vehicle (4x4) could navigate along.<br>
<br>
I'm looking with JOSM without the benefit of the border to a task
square so my next comment may be 'outside the box', but the
highway lengths also need to connect to the other length of
highway to the West - there is a small cloud partially obscuring
the route, but there is a route visible for most of it & a
straight line length of highway may be needed for part of it
through the cloud - it must be there somewhere!<br>
<br>
Hope this helps<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi all,
Just having a mini discussion with another mapper about road vs path.
We're both familiar with the Highway Tagging Africa scheme, but we
drew different conclusions about the particular routes we were looking
at.
So it'd be handy if anyone wants to comment on road-vs-path for this location:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/-0.32568/20.94023">http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/-0.32568/20.94023</a>
And who knows, maybe it would be suitable to use as an example for
future mappers, since we didn't intuitively come to the same
conclusions.
Thanks
Dan
