I want to know how to map a road that crosses a river, but there is not a bridge. For example, those crossings when a 4x4 gets into the water like in the following picture: Normally, when a road crosses a road, we need to define levels, but here, they are at the same level. How can I map this without any error in JOSM? asked 18 Apr '16, 00:58  AngocA |
One Answer:
It's a ford. I like to make a short segment between the riverbanks and mark that as a ford, with that segment being connected to the river. I do this even for a smaller river/stream where the riverbank hasn't been traced, basing the ends of the segment on the imagery. answered 18 Apr '16, 02:47  maxerickson edited 19 Apr '16, 01:24 |
AngocA, a lot of these kind of questions can be found at the Wiki pages, just like the ford, http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Ford
Looks like a Nissan to me ;)
I did not know the FORD word in English, and for this reason this is difficult to find clear instructions in the wiki where the mother language is different to English.
