mapping detail for funky features<br></font><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><div>G'day,<br><br>Hoping you might be able to point me in the right direction for advise on some mapping I've done.<br><br>http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-26.90444&lon=152.94041&zoom=16<br>Two questions<br>1) Is it correct to split ways for surface changes? As the road goes from paved to gravel a couple times I have been splitting the way and tagging each section with the appropriate surface. If the split is correct, is there then a way to control the name display when rendered so that its name doesn't appear 6 times?<br>2) Did I do the one-way section correctly (tied into the above question about names displayed when rendered)<br><br>http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-27.27722&lon=152.9542&zoom=16<br>I can see the mapper here has put in funky little bumps
for road wriggles and culdesacs. I live in a area with hundreds of km's of unmapped ways so have been worrying about just getting the ways into OSM and not so much if its got a speed control wriggle or a couple car parking bays. Is this level of detail the required standard or has the mapper gone beyond the call of duty and deserves a round of applause?<br><br>Regards, Jeff (jeffp_oz)<br></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
