I did some good tracks by bike this summer, but I have no clue how to mark and share them in OpenStreetMap cause there is only opportunity to mark (new) streets... How can I mark an existing road as recommended as cycling road? Regards Felix asked 19 Sep '14, 12:03 Felix Schumann SomeoneElse ♦ |
There are cycling tracks and cycling tracks, some of them belong in OSM, others not. What belongs in OSM:
What does not belong in OSM:
Assuming you want to enter signposted cycle routes, take a look at the wiki Cycle routes You can see the existing cycle routes, e.g. on the Cycle Map Feel free to ask when you get stuck with the documentation on the wiki. answered 19 Sep '14, 13:07 escada 5
As for a router that really looks at preferred cycling roads see http://cycle.travel/map by Richard Fairhurst. This router takes e.g. the maxspeed on the street into account to determine whether it is a nice cycle road. No need for special tags to recommend a street
