Everyone,<br><br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>I need
guidance on tagging where dirt roads are major ways. In western parts of
the United States, especially the Southwest, a dirt road may be a major
link, reaching deep into a rural area. These usually are very good dirt
roads, wide and graded regularly. Because of their good quality, they
provide access for the average passenger car, which often can travel
these roads at a fairly high rate of speed, say 35 or 45 miles an
hour.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>If these
ways are tagged as "track," they are rendered on the map as an
ordinary brown line. At lower resolutions, the brown line becomes
rendered as a dashed brown line, and the character of these roads is lost
completely. They are mapped like any other dirt track.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>So I have
been tagging them as tertiary roads and have added
"tracktype=grade1." Is this a problem? Is there an
alternative?<br><br>
