overpass query for sidewalks widths within a range

Question

Hello everybody, I want to make an overpass query which shows me the sidewalks which the width attribute is for example 0.80 m to 0.90 m for them.

( way["footway"="sidewalk"] ["width"="0.81 m"] ({{bbox}}); );

the above mentioned code shows only the side walks with the 0.81 m of width. how can I modify my code to search for a range of widths?

thank you in advance

Not sure if there is something like range matching but I guess you could use a regular expression if you are not too picky about the ranges. To find 0.8 to 0.99m you could for example look for

( way["footway"="sidewalk"]["width"~"^0\.[89]"] ({{bbox}}); );

That would find all values starting with 0.8 or 0.9.

Unfortunately very few sidewalks around here have a width tagged at all so I could not test that expression. Can you point to the aeria you are exploring?

Dave's suggestion with the numerical evaluation is probably the better approach.
