Heinrich,
<br>
<br>
That looks like a huge improvement from the existing proposal. A
few questions for clarification and discussion:
<br>
* In this proposal, the actual TMC LCDs are not technically
required, are they? If all the ways are tagged according to this
schema, you can look up the segments just by looking at the ways?
I guess having the LCD encoded onto nodes will speed up lookup.
<br>
* How do you plan to make this huge effort (even just for Germany)
manageable? I mean, it's simpler than it looks, but it still is a
*lot* of work. A JOSM plugin? A dedicated website to track
progress and show bugs / inconsistencies? Other supporting tools
for mappers?
<br>
* Do you (or anyone) have any info on the 'openness' of this data
in other countries? I believe they are proprietary data here in
the US, not sure though (will ask in talk-us).

I do not yet have an idea about a plug-in for JOSM, but TMC
inspector is already online:<br>
<br>
Visit <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

<br>
(Please report if the link does not work.)
<br>
<br>
I think this is a good means of visualizing the state of TMC
mapping.<br>
<br>
And there is another project at infoware to install and run a server
that continuously shows the current traffic status on these road
segments that are tagged according to the the new scheme.
