proposals and, through taginfo, saw some recent spikes in the
use of the non approved and discouraged use of the road key
(should be highway).<br> The spikes, due to their amount and short time-frame in which
they appear seem to be indicating unnoticed mass or automated
edits.<br> Do they need closer attention / investigation and action to
revert ?</span></span></p><p><span style="" class=""><span class="font" style="font-family:Verdana">1. Jan 2017 - spike of +-500, seems to be
reverted by +-300 by Mar 2017<br> 2. Mar 2019 - spike of +-400, not reverted<br> 3. Sep/Okt 2020 to Feb 2021 - spike of +-800, not reverted and
continuing at a worrying rate</span></span></p><p><span style="" class=""><span class="font" style="font-family:Verdana">These 3 spikes together make up 3/4 of the
total use cases of the road key.</span></span><br></p><p><span style="" class=""><span class="font" style="font-family:Verdana">Would appreciate some help with taginfo /
overpass trubo / other tools to get more insight on the
phenomena.</span></span><br></p><p><span style="" class=""><span class="font" style="font-family:Verdana">Greetings,</span></span><br></p><p><span style="" class=""><span class="font" style="font-family:Verdana">Bert Araali</span></span><br></p><p><span style="" class=""><span class="font" style="font-family:Verdana"></span></span><br></p></blockquote><div><br></div></blockquote><div><br></div> </body>
