Passable gates appear as closed gates on MTB & IHM #220

Closed YGMZ closed 6 years ago

YGMZ commented 6 years ago

Gate passable by hikers and bikers are shown as closed gates on MTB & IHM. Was OK in previous versions, something went wrong on this version see examples: gate at: 31.782101°, 35.131241° (רוחב, אורך) 212523 / 632158 (מז', צ') גובה 663 מ' gate at: 31.785548°, 35.130919° (רוחב, אורך) 212493 / 632540 (מז', צ') גובה 722 מ'

This is a change in the symbology to be published soon. We have began using the same icons for the hiking and biking maps. From now on black is an open gate and red is a closed one. I know it's confusing but it will bear out in the longer run.

I suggest to show 3 types of gates 1 - open to all 2 - open to hikers or bikers & closed to vehicle 3 - open to none I would use shape rather then color, but if color is used then I would use 3 colors the differentiate the 3 types (green, black, red)

See the discussion in #160. It's a long one, search for gates. There's no real benefit in showing a gate that is open to all.

But we do show open gates. They might be closed some of the time, e.g. Shabbat, and they serve as a waymark.

I agree with Guy

On the present symbols I suggest that:

I prefer that the difference between an open and a closed gate is in one aspect only. Otherwise the reader could wonder what is a black gate with an inside X or a red gate with a diagonal inside.
