To my understanding, signposting is one way of waymarking. I've now
changed the text to "signposted or otherwise waymarked". Hope that's
English? I checked the dictionary for the terms, they are correct, I think,
but it didn't mention what people actually call it around the globe.

Best, Peter Elderson
