Path vs. Cycleway/Footway

Do Icycle đăng vào 03 tháng 12 năm 2008 bằng English.

Since the Gravitystorm Cycle Map does not render ways tagged as highway=path, I have retagged a couple of ways that I had previously marked as highway=path. Both were simple dirt trails that apparently developed though simple usage.

One of the trails is a short-cut that links the Guadalupe River Trail to Component Drive, and from there to the Component VTA light rail station. I have since learned that this trial lies on a right of way the the City of San Jose either owns, or has easement rights to, and they have proposed to develop this corridor into a multi-use path: http://www.sjparks.org/Trails/ComponentTrail.htm. Therefore, I have retagged this trail as highway=cycleway.

The other trail is a bit murkier. I have no idea of its official status, but it leaves the eastern lobe of the Silver Creek Linear Park through a 20' hole in its southern fence, and then traverses property whose ownership I don't know to small clearing next to the creek. I retagged this one as highway=footway, since I suspect that this is how this trail is actually used.

Finally, I did some more clean up of the TIGER data in the Silver Creek neighborhood. Some have suggested that any way that has ever been edited should automatically have its tiger:review=no tag effectively cleared. But given my clean-up style, I think this would be a bad idea. When I'm cleaning up an area, I will often only clean up *part* of a way, not the entire way, since cleaning up a entire way may necessitate cleaning up a whole other chunk of map that I'm not ready to tackle yet.

Maybe the tiger:review=no tag shouldn’t be removed if you’ve touched less than 25% (or some other figure) of the way’s nodes? Basically come up with a system so that if you’ve edited a street and the entire street can be fit on a screen at zoom level 16, it’ll remove the tag.
