Cycle use case with OSM tagging – Paid work by Buskerudbyen

Hi NKA,

thanks for the quick response and thanks for pointing out pitfalls and conventions.

I’m a software developer specialising in GIS applications and have been helping Buskerudbyen with their mapping needs.

About proposed cycleways not being rendered: this is actually what we want.

We want to build a separate visualisation layer on top of a regular base map. For that I would like to add the infrastructure to OSM and then extract regularly from a PBF download or just plain overpass turbo (if we don’t run into rate limits, which I suspect we will).

Since the plans are from a (somewhat) official source, do you think they meet the “firm stage” requirement?
