Put roundabouts in line layer files and not polygon layer files #99

Open severinmenard opened 9 years ago

severinmenard commented 9 years ago

Currently all the roundabouts, I guess as they are OSM closedways, they are exported as polygons and not lines what consequently creates incomplete road network. Needs to export everything with the highway key is the line layers. See a snapshot below. hot_export_roundabouts_bug

One thing to watch for with this one is, we quite commonly map town squares as highway=pedestrian drawn as a closed way. They should also have the area=yes tag in this case though http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dpedestrian#How_to_map

So I think the best rule is: anything with the highway key is linear, even if it's a closed way, except if it is a closed way and it has area=yes.
