<p>Hey all,</p>
<p>I started mapping detailed sidewalk information in my area,
including crossing and kerb information. It seems that there is a
lack of clarity in the differentiation between raised and regular
("normal", neither lowered nor raised) kerbs. "kerb=regular" is
already in use but is undocumented and should be explicitly
distinguished from "kerb=raised". There is a relevant difference
not only for wheelchair users, but also for other mobility groups
(cargo bikes, strollers, pedestrians with reduced mobility…).</p>
<p>So I propose adding "kerb=regular" to the tagging list in the
wiki as well as suitable descriptions for height, use… and an
example image. I made a suggestion in the wiki (since there has
been no reaction so far I post it here):
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Key:kerb#kerb.3Dregular_vs._raised_--_add_.22regular.22_example">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Key:kerb#kerb.3Dregular_vs._raised_--_add_.22regular.22_example</a></p>
<p>Is there a reason not to add this? Otherwise I’ll do that.</p>
<p>Greets, Alex<br>
