Its not perfectly positioned and I think the circumference is a tad short<br>
but I made a reasonably good insert of the CERN LHC (and SPS) into the<br>
database last night in time for the first full circle beam test of the LHC,<br>
which has just successfully completed. So, for anyone wanting to know<br>
exactly where the two accelerator rings are in the world it's now possible<br>
to point them to OpenStreetMap. Another first for community mapping :-)<br>

I hope the data made the planet dump (JIT), in which case it should appear<br>
also on the Mapnik layer shortly.<br>
<br>
For now the two rings are tagged with highway=trunk and highway=primary<br>
respectively. They also carry tunnel=true of course. There are a couple of<br>
big notes tagged as well that confirm the highway tag is less than ideal and<br>
that something better needs to be used. But for now, since they don't<br>
connect with the road network I don't think anyone will be routing over them<br>
;-)<br>
<br>
enjoy<br>
