Use existing crossing nodes when making segments #5

Open 3vivekb opened 7 years ago

If existing crossing nodes exist in a segment, use them.

It's an open question whether to use the sidewalk nodes to angle towards that crossing or to use that crossing node and generate two lines that reach the existing sidewalks in the shortest distance.

Do you mean using highway=crossing nodes from the street data as a hint for crossing placement?

3vivekb commented 7 years ago

Yes. Exactly. If they exist at the intersection. But mostly the crossing would go through it then in JOSM we could join the two with a single click.

nbolten commented 6 years ago

Ah, I understand. Requiring that the path go through the existing node is a very different strategy from what crossify currently supports, so it will probably be a bit of time before this feature is implemented.
