Named junctions that are roundabouts can easily be given a "name" tag, and this could also be done for single-node junctions by also tagging them junction=yes. But how should one tag the names (and other info) for intersections of dual carriageways (with four nodes) and more complex interchanges which cannot be represented by a single node or circular way? asked 05 Jan '13, 08:13  Paul_012 |

make the relation :) answered 05 Jan '13, 19:59  dr_mx edited 05 Jan '13, 20:12 |
Mark the node where the motorway and the motorway_link separate with
See highway=motorway_junction for examples. /al answered 15 Jan '13, 10:57  _al the question was about a roundabouts, not about а node (15 Jan '13, 11:47) dr_mx 1 "for intersections of dual carriageways and more complex interchanges". No roundabouts here, Paul even states he knows how to tag roundabouts. And even if it was a more complex roundabout (like this one: http://osm.org/go/0JrMII2NX-) it could be tagged as I said ("Knoten Nordbrücke"). (15 Jan '13, 12:11) _al can you show full taggin scheme for the above example? should be only one unique name tag for the intersection. this is only possible when using a relation (15 Jan '13, 18:20) dr_mx |
Okay; found the relation type=junction, which hasn't gotten past proposal status but has a thousand or so uses. Guess it's the best fit for now.
