<p>I see that I have probably chosen an unfavorable solution to
solve the problem described. Many seem to accept the basic
problem: There is only one qualitative category for all kerbs with
a height of over ~3 cm, although in reality there is a significant
difference.<br>
<br>
I see two alternatives to the proposed solution:<br>
<br>
a) (as suggested in the vote section) Deprecate the category
"raised" and introduce two <i>new</i> values to differentiate
it (eg "heightened" vs. "regular" or "medium" if there is sematic
criticism of "regular")<br>
b) Keep the existing categories, accept that the term "raised" has
so far included both normal and raised kerbs and merely introduce
an explicit tag to distinguish <i>actually</i> raised kerbs (e.g.
"heightened").<br>
<br>
What do you think? Any other or further suggestions?<br>

P.S. The advice to specify the height precisely in cm instead does
not lead any further - as discussed in several places -, since
precise height information cannot be collected on a large scale
and remains optional. It is not without reason that there are
qualitative curb categories - just one too few. A typical
intersection has about 8 curbs, which I can assess qualitatively
with my eyes within some seconds while passing, but I need a few
minutes to measure them all with a ruler...</p>

Martin - does that suggest that over 12,000 existing raised kerbs will need to be resurveyed?

that’s how I read it, and there are actually 28.4K raised kerbs affected (because you have to look at the ways as well).
