[mkgmap-dev] highway=razed

From Gerd Petermann gpetermann_muenchen at hotmail.com on Thu Sep 17 10:19:38 BST 2015

Hi all,

the lines file in the default style contains this rule:
# Mop up any unrecognised highway types
highway=* & highway!=proposed & area!=yes [0x07 road_class=0 road_speed=0 resolution 23] 

I've changed it to 
highway=* & highway!=proposed & area!=yes { echotags "mop up" } [0x07 road_class=0 road_speed=0 resolution 23]
to see what it does and it "mops up" all kings of problem cases, e.g. mapping errors like
highway=turning_circle
or removed highways with the 
highway=razed

I think the default style should not add these ways as routable, if at all.

It also catches many 
highway=platform 
and 
highway=rest_area

Most of these ways are areas, but don't have the area=yes tag.
I am not sure why the "mop up" rule would ignore them when the area=yes tag exists.

Gerd
