<div dir="auto">A cyling or hiking route has to be precise, as many navigation devices use them to define the course of the hiker or rider takes. If the course deviates from the signposted one, the hiker or rider will start to have doubts. Route errors in OSM can have grave consequnces for the end user.</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, 15 Aug 2021, 08:02 Yves via Tagging, <<a href="mailto:tagging@openstreetmap.org">tagging@openstreetmap.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div>In my opinion, a route is something rather abstract.
