Hi again,

One more thing: 7) Render piste:name=*.

Tractor

1) On Norwegian maps XC trails are usually either red or blue (depending on the region I think). The colour doesn’t really matter as long as it doesn’t make the map hard to read.

2) Maybe like it is suggested here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Piste_Maps

3) I don’t know how it’s done in other countries, but here in Norway we usually put all the piste: tags directly on the way without the need for realtions. Relations are mostly used to name different XC trails.

Unlike alpine pistes, XC pistes are usually not (or never?) colour coded according to difficulty here.

4) I see your point about piste:abandoned. It’s actually the answer I expected. Some of those abandoned XC trails can be quite interesting to explore though.

6) In addition to being used as an access permission, ski=yes is used on some features to indicate that they are related to skiing. E.g.: tourism=information + information=map + ski=yes

I’ve got a few suggestions for you to consider to make Opensnowmap even better than it already is: 1) Improve contrast for XC trails against wood/forest and water. 2) Render piste:type=nordic + piste:grooming=scooter differently from piste:type=nordic + piste:grooming=backcountry. 3) If a way belongs to a piste:type=nordic relation (without piste:grooming=*), it is currently rendered as a solid line even if the way is tagged piste:type=nordic + piste:grooming=scooter or piste:grooming=backcountry. I guess this is a bug. 4) Render piste:abandoned=yes. 5) Render piste:type=ice_skating. 6) Highlight objects tagged with ski=yes.

Very nice.

Thanks. Looking forward to see it “in real life”.

When can we expect to see the new style implemented on the main map?

Overall I like the changes. The old green trunk roads are very difficult to see against natural=wood when zoomed out, so I’m glad to see them go. I don’t find the blue motorways problematic since it’s a very different blue from that of the waterways. It’s just a matter of getting used to blue roads on a map.

It would be nice if we could have more styles to choose from on the main map, but I understand if it will be to much work to maintain different styles.

Would it be possible to make an example where we can compare the new highway=motorway, highway=trunk and highway=* + motorroad=yes?

Trunk and motorways should render differently. They are not the same thing, and in some countries the difference is huge.

Nice work!

I'm not sure that telling people that you may get arrested is the best way to promote OSM and recruit new people to the project...

I'm surprised to see that Sweden has such a law. The whole idea behind such a law seems to be something left over from the cold war era. The law is from a time before Wikipedia, OpenStreetMap, Facebook etc., and should be changed to take into account modern technology and its uses in present day society.

Thank you.

OffMaps2 actually uses vector maps. If you're going to buy more than just a couple of maps, I'd recommend buying the so called "maps flatrate". An alternative is City Maps 2Go, which is a bit cheaper.

Same problem here, with Safari, so it's probably not related to the browser. Maybe the server is just busy.
