Hi, I would not worry about roundabouts being split into two or more ways: it is very common, for reasons such as showing a transport route (e.g. bus) correctly.

The large number of node changes were caused by buildings straddling over roads and landuse.

Here is my reply: https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=63677

I think it is better to discuss in the forum since it is easier to reference the posts later.

You’re right about keeping the names short and simple (in this case, the A6 should just be Αττική Οδός/Attiki Odos) - however, tunnels have their own names, so in tunnels the main road name goes to the alt_name=* tag.

Another thing of interest, name:el=* is not necessary, since Greek is the official language anyway. Tempting, I know. ;-)

When we map national and provincial roads with substandard road conditions, we use the "surface" and "smoothness" tags. The reason I map national and provincial roads with the standard categories (secondary or higher), is because it is in the Greek law. See osm.wiki/WikiProject_Greece/National_Road_Network.

If I recall correctly, crossing ways without an intersecting node are not allowed for level junctions, and is also why we have turn restrictions to direct traffic to the correct path.

Hi, at osm.wiki/WikiProject_Greece I believe that the current consensus is that the road numbers are tagged under "ref" and not "nat_ref". It is worth noting that we do not tag just for the renderer. See: osm.wiki/Tagging_for_the_renderer

I think we should go to https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewforum.php?id=27 to develop a new standard for road names. I let you start the thread.

Apologies for sounding strict, but if I recall correctly, the format for the road numbers are: Α12 (motorways), ΕΟ12 or ΕΟ12α (national roads) and ΕΠ12 (provincial roads). Letters should be in Hellenic alphabet. Also, refrain from removing names in other languages: OSM is a global project.

I also noticed that no one could figure what the direction the way was in Potlatch 2, but since Flash is heading for the grave …

Are you sure that Hitler is a real name for a trail?

I have an idea for a compromise: I wonder if the name could be styled as name=भारत/India , as it is the case for Belgium, New Zealand and Switzerland?

I don't think just typing "+" is a sufficient changeset comment from my point of view. A simple changeset comment like "Added tracks" would make a lot of difference.

In any case, there is a lot of landuse, farmland and forestry that remains unmapped in throughout Greece. We need more landuse.

Side note: one of the reasons I use turn restrictions in "strict mode" is to make it harder for routers to suggest stupid directions like osm.org/directions?engine=graphhopper_car&route=47.1930%2C8.4760%3B47.1985%2C8.4719#map=16/47.1957/8.4741 (as of 25 October 2017).

I should also add that I map each direction separately if the road is separated by a visible central reservation raised by a kerb, regardless of surface.

53197690 about 8 years ago

According to https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/OCGA2618o24nDCjHRoQGuQ the northbound lanes south of the roundabout are only separated by a white line, hence I thought I should use "change:lanes", and the u-turn was created because I believe I cannot just do that at any junction. Nevertheless I reverted the whole changeset because I think I am not good enough or may be I should try again from scratch.

I have to agree with you on this: JayCBR was the one pushing for the renumbering of the A62, A64 and A642 as well as the downgrading of the A65, but the signs have not been updated in nearly two years since ΦΕΚ 253ΑΑΠ/2015 came into force.

I am kinda concerned that you are duplicating existing roads. Can you please try integrating your survey results to the existing roads?

51814852 over 8 years ago

Typo in changeset comment – should be "Refining main roads to village".

51587556 over 8 years ago

Sorry, typo in changeset comment - supposed to be Landuse and service roads traced in according to DigitalGlobe-Premium.
