[talk-au] sac_scale [Was: Deletion of walking

[Phil Wyatt]

Hi Folks,

 

I think Class 1 specifically mentions disability access so I would hate to see that combined in any way with other classes.

 

Cheers - Phil

I think we should just stick with the AWTGS as it stands.  It seems to be gaining widespread government support, and even if it is not perfect, it seems like a standard that is going to stay with us.

 

So, working on this idea, looking at https://www.ffm.vic.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0019/21475/dse_trail_grade_brochure_tagged.pdf, & having a play, a first draft comes up with something like:

 


AWGTS Class 1

Criteria

	OSM


Distance 

Xxx (<5k)

	Distance=4.5

				

Gradient

Flat

	incline=no

			
steps=no

				

Quality

Well formed

	surface=paved / compacted

	
Wheelchair OK

	wheelchair=yes

				

Markings

Sign-posted

	trail_visibility=excellent

				

Time

(closest 15 / 30 minutes /

	Duration=00:15 / 15 minutes

	
Hour / half-day / day)

		
				

Experience

Nil

		

 

All the rest slot rather well into existing tags, although "incline" may be a bit iffy?, but don't know what to do with the "Experience" field?

 

The Guide says:

Class 1 / 2 - "No experience required"

Class 3 - "Some bushwalking experience recommended"

Class 4 - "Experienced bushwalkers"

Class 5 - "Very experienced bushwalkers"

 

A new key perhaps: AWGTS_scale=1-5, with descriptions as above?

 

What do you all think?

 

Thanks

 

Graeme
