TS data: road_type_id "specification" #228

Closed zacharyrpope closed 5 years ago

zacharyrpope commented 5 years ago

More of a general comment/request. Underlying TS data contains some examples of type_id assignments that are not clear. One example would be the use of "road_type_id" in the roads layer, which I presume can be correlated to OSM highway_type or something like that, but it's not immediately clear what this field means.

At some point, it would be really nice to have a readme in the dataset that defines these things.

Would also be nice to know which field types and data types are static, and which ones aren't guaranteed to be the same through revisions. Eg. stream_gid will change over time with each version. Will the road_id_type be global and static, or change over time?

@zacharyrpope take a look inside of ${state}.data.json for a property called roadTypes. That should get you what you need.

@andest01 Perfect!
