Hello Roger,</div>

<div>Thanks for pointing that out. I've fixed this now. It wasn't actually supposed to show the access area polygon at all; the server was returning anything with a 'designation' tag. I overlooked the fact that 'designation' might be used for things other than
rights of way, hence the polygon was appearing.</div>
<div><br>
I have now fixed this so only ways with specified values for the 'designation' tag, i.e. the allowed values for rights of way, are retuened.</div>

I have noticed an anomaly in the MapThePaths site. Normally, clicking on a PROW shows its designation. But in my area, it does not seem to work if the path is within an access area. For example, footpath 505 008 (Blawith, Cumbria) crosses the access area boundary.
Clicking outside the access area shows the reference. Inside the access area does not. If you close the OSM footpaths layer, the click then works.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>

To follow up an email of just over a week ago, I have now updated the MapThePaths Android app (<a href="https://mapthepaths.org.uk/app.html" id="LPlnk218713">https://mapthepaths.org.uk/app.html</a>;
<a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.org.mapthepaths.android" id="LPNoLP511062">
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.org.mapthepaths.android</a>) so that tagged GPS traces can be created. You can record a GPS trace, and tag each segment (GPX <trkseg>) with the current path designation and path type (grass path, dirt track,
paved service road, etc) by means of drop-down lists.</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:12pt; color:rgb(0,0,0)">
<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:12pt; color:rgb(0,0,0)">
The GPS traces can be uploaded to OSM and to the MapThePaths server. The high-level designation and path types are converted to OSM highway, designation and surface tags, and each track segment tagged with these three tags.</div>

<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:12pt; color:rgb(0,0,0)">
It will shortly be possible to view the uploaded GPS traces on the MapThePaths website as a selectable layer.</div>

As I said in my original email, one of my aims is to provide a way for OSM beginners to easily survey rights of way. The UI is still very rudimentary; I am not a UX expert so what would be really nice is for someone with good UX skills to come up with a better
UI aimed at allowing beginners to easily use the app. My general idea is that users can select high-level, unambiguous designations (public footpath, etc) and path types (grass path, dirt track etc) via the UI. If I get some nice designs, which the community
is happy with as a whole, plus some nice graphics, I'm quite happy to then use those designs and graphics in code.</div>

The other component then needed is the JOSM plugin (either a new one or, probably bettter, a modification of an existing one - I'm thinking of the KML plugin that was mentioned - as we discussed last week) to allow the tagged traces to be imported into JOSM
for use by experienced mappers to actually create the OSM ways. An alert system would be nice also, to alert experienced users of any new traces in their area.</div>

I have also added a new option to turn off the 'snap map to current GPS location' feature, allowing users to pan the map around.</div>
