Hi Felix,
okay, got the point, but why do we assume that a highway=unclassified is paved
when no other tag gives information?
Might be a good assumption in Germany or Austria, but probably not in other areas.

Subject: Re: [mkgmap-dev] default style: highway=path means unpaved?Well that was introduced because it is unknown. If you have a map and want to avoid unpaved ways - and select that - then there really should be no unpaved ways. If we don't set unpaved here - the avoidance will not be strict enough anymore...highway=path & bicycle=designated could well be a tracktype=grade2 and sometimes even grade3 or worse... And in cases of a mtb route - clearly something completely unrideable for a normal cyclist...On 8 September 2015 at 10:19, Gerd Petermann <gpetermann_muenchen@hotmail.com> wrote:Hi all,
I just noted that the default style sets the mkgmap:unpaved
flag for many cycleways, e.g.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/276070019
I see intensive discussions about wrong use of
highway=path and/or wrong interpretation of that tag.
The rule in lines is
(highway=bridleway | highway=path | highway=track | highway=unsurfaced)
& surface!=* & tracktype!=* & smoothness!=* & sac_scale!=*
{ add mkgmap:unpaved=1 }
My understanding is that highway=track is likely to be unpaved, but
highway=path doesn't suggest that, esp. not in combination with
bicycle=designated.
Does anybody have a better solution?
Gerd
