[Tagging] highway=residential road

[Gerd Petermann]

I fixed one or two edits in Africa during the last days thinking those were simple typos,

but new mappers continued to use this tag, so I thought I should try to contact the

more experienced mappers to point out that there might be a recent change in the

instructions which was not good.

I'll contact the mappers as well.

I am on mobile, this is what I found:
8 objects
http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/etp

At least on this project
#hotosm-project-1465, #MissingMaps, #Mozambique, #Bing
http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/1465
Pretty standard instructions with references to wiki-highway_tag_africa

At least with this changeset
http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/37272932
Best course in my opinion would be to contact directly mapper(s) via OSM changesets discussion to welcome and explain.

See you all

Hi all,


in the last days a few newby mappers started to map highway="residential road" .

They all contribute to #hotosm tasks, so it seems that the hints for these projects

suggest to use this tagging. Can anybody from HOT check this, please ?
