no, the railway community prefers to use duplicate tags for some reason.......... see https://taginfo.osm.org/tags/railway=waste_disposal#projects , some apps only support railway=waste_disposal and not amenity=waste_disposal

yeah, I now know how to do this properly, so hopefully you don't see many such mistakes from me. Apologies for this one.

I still think it's worthwhile improving iD's software, so that we don't inadvertently break things like this. I'll follow up in the issue tracker on GitHub

@Warin61 could you open an issue in https://github.com/openstretmap/iD please? If the editor doesn't tell people about this issue, the same problem will just continue to happen

agreed, but in this case we might need both tags? since many of these track crossings are controlled by pedestrian traffic-lights

p.s. there's also railway=tram_crossing which might be even more fitting

thanks for these edits, this is the new trail that's opening next week right?

*sos

heya, nice work adding all these details ! do you have any thoughts on the tagging scheme itself? (osm.wiki/New_Zealand/Railways)

I asked for feedback in a bunch of OSM forums, and got heaps of comments from Germans, Australians, etc. but not a single response from any other kiwis

The current tags are not set in stone - the only app that supports them right now is https://openrailwaymap.app/#view=15.21/-36.847515/174.780519&style=signals

so if you've got ideas or thoughts, please let me know - I'm certainly not an expert. and I've already found one flaw: you can't have a low-speed and restricted-speed light on the same node, which I thought was impossible, but there's 1 example of this in Penrose, Auckland. maybe others too

sounds good, yeah I think this was discussed on the discord too and the consensus was ref=*. fixed now

sorry but this isn't correct, the physical bridge pillars were built on different dates many months ago.

the date that the cycleway opened is different, and recorded by the start_date=* on the way/1221288557

Thanks for your edits! out of curiousity, do you use any software that depends on these MOE:* tags?

At some point, they should be mass-replaced with the standard OSM tags (e.g. changing all MOE:years=* to grades=* ).

But that will break any software using these tags, so I'm trying to figure out who (if anyone) makes use of this data

hey mateusz, yes it's a typo, fixed now

thanks! sorry i missed that very last sentance somehow. done now: changeset/176176211

done finally. had to wait for AT to delete the old stops from the GTFS trips

- changeset/176174998
- changeset/176175825
- changeset/176175650

thanks! yeah the eastern side seemed to be open already on thursday morning, with no physical separation

the only thing is: how we tag the difference surface? footpath is concrete or bricks, and the cycleway is asphalt

Hi Aleksandar, the volcano was recently renamed, and the signage on the hiking trails has already been updated to use the new name. You can see this news article for more information: https://stuff.co.nz/nz-news/360639093

The old english name is now included in the old_name=* tag

Hi, welcome to OpenStreetMap. In this edit, you changed a 'Minor Road' to a 'Service Road', but this doesn't affect public access - it just affects the importance of the road.

If you want to mark this road as private, you'll need to select it in the editor, and then scroll down to the "Access" section, where you can set it to "private"

hii, i saw that you've mapped some rail signals too, just FYI these signals are rendered on OpenRailwayMap now: https://openrailwaymap.app/#view=15.14/-36.847844/174.780768&style=signals

pretty much everything in osm.wiki/New Zealand/Railways has an icon except the speed signs

hey, following up on this 2 years later, I've made some proper SVGs for this route shield (and the other 'touring' routes in NZ) – see https://github.com/osm-americana/openstreetmap-americana/pull/1311

let me know if you've got any feedback or thoughts - i did see your comments on osm.wiki/New_Zealand/Road_network#TODO as well :)

hey hoizan, thanks for letting me know. fixed now. feel free to reach out if there are issues with other relations

i see, thanks. should be all correct now, appreciate your help
