[OSM-talk-be] tags for prohibitory road signs in Belgium

[Stijn Rombauts]

 Hi,
Some comments:
- An interesting change is the one from access=no/destination to vehicle=no/destination for the C5-sign, which I support, because it's more correct. But a disadvantage is that e.g. access=no/destination shows on the map, but vehicle=no/destination not. Would the proposal to treat access=no/destination and vehicle=no/destination equally on the map make any chance?- Add C3 + 'uitgezonderd landbouwvoertuigen/landbouwgebruik/usage agricole/convois agricoles... : vehicle=no + agricultural=yes- The same for bus=yes, taxi=yes, ... Or refer to https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access- 'uitgezonderd plaatselijk verkeer / excepté circulation locale' implies also bus=yes
- A general remark that could be added: never follow the traffic signs blindly when adding (access) tags: in some local authorities the one who has to decide about traffic signs doesn't seem to know which sign to use where. In the draft there is also a mistake: M4 and M5 cannot be added to a C1.- Another general remark: do not add access-tags which are already implied by the highway-tag that is used. In my opinion also the tags for the mandatory (D) signs should be reviewed. E.g. for D11 suffices highway=footway; all the rest is redundant. (And there are contradictions with this page: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_tags_for_routing/Access-Restrictions#Belgium)- Add examples for 'complicated' cases: e.g. 'C3+uitgezonderd plaatselijk verkeer' in one direction / no access limitations in the other direction.- Is it a good idea to encourage mappers to add overtaking=yes wherever overtaking is not forbidden? I'd treat that as a default: no need to add that tag explicitly.

Regards,
StijnRR

 Hi,
s8evq has been consulting some heavy mappers about the "road signs in Belgium" wiki page, because it didn't seem to reflect how we actually map. There's a draft new page at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Road_signs_in_Belgium#Suggestion_for_an_update_of_the_prohibitory_signs
Feel free to comment here or on Riot if you think it can be further improved!
