[mkgmap-dev] overlapping highways and route restrictions

Wed Apr 4 09:48:20 BST 2018

For my maps 1) is enough - and warning not even needed. I think it's hard
to find out what the outcome should be.
The case of overlapping ways being part of different route relations on the
other hand I've seen quite often - in that case I think it's best to just
add all route relations to one way, and remove the other one.

The example you found here - I think is quite possible to solve - both
restriction relations are identical - so one way including the restriction
relation can be removed, the route relations copied over. If the
restriction is having different rules - then however I don't think we can
solve it correctly (well an exception is if we have overlapping ways in OSM
which are oneway and opposite to each other - this is a rare case where
overlapping ways are not to be removed I guess).
