Finishing up Stavanger, Norway

I am holding coatbridge at 99% complete, until I get the the rest of the addresses added everything else is there :) Stravanger looks great, good job

How I manage to do it

I have missed a few street/place/road/lane/way on the first survey, second time I nail it, and yeah address data is better second time too if you print out osm for the area.

Creative Commons makes it possible

Hiking Trails & Mountain roads

No probs, I was using highway=gate but I have now started using the new tag Barrier=gate, my thinking is a highway can be a road or track but never a gate. :)

Hiking Trails & Mountain roads

the roads in the mountains are they not best tagged as tracks highway=track and tracktype=grade 1 to grade 5 ? I am mapping using this tag a lot of forest tracks in Scotland which are only for the use of forest vehicles, but you can walk on them and use a bicyle on them and have locked gates. hope this helps
