<div dir="ltr">James,<div><br></div><div>I have a question about this, though it all sounds good to me in principle. Is your proposal just about the relations? What would we do on the refs of the ways? For example, on I-394 in Minneapolis and western suburbs, a mapper has left off US 12 because it is at least partly unsigned. So we have way ref I 394 instead of I 394;US 12. For my applications I'd prefer it said I 394;US 12, because we need to track the overlaps (which we and our 10 state DOT customers call double banding). But if you also want to suppress shields from maps in such areas, could we enter the way ref as I 394;US 12|unsigned ?</div>

Both states have signs for theses routes telling people to follow said Interstates for those routes and then no more reference to them till when they leave the Interstates. I'm thinking that we could possibly tag the roles for them in the relations this way: role=north|unsigned. This would also help for the renders that use the relations to add the shields. They would be able to use the "|unsigned" part to know not to add the shields along that way.<br>
<br>As for the highways that are completely hidden, the "unsigned_ref" tag in the relation will work perfectly for them still (US-85 in NM as an example).<br><br>Anybody else agree with me that this might work better than the two relations for the highways that have segments that are hidden?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
