User:Ulamm/Surface damages

The smoothness of road surfaces, including and especially cycleway surfaces, generally is more or less degraded by lack of maintainance.

For the description of some new tags can be useful:

Overall tag

damages=*

• *=no (this value if the surface is like recently built in a good quality)
• *=little or *=few
• *=significant
• *=heavy
• *=desolate

Specifications

• pot-holes=*
• transversal_ridges=* (rather caused by underground waterflows)
• transversal_waves=* (rather caused by the roots of trees)
• longitudial_ridges=* (rather on dams and contour terraces)
• edges=* (especially with paving stones and concrete layers)
• displaced_stones=* (with paving stones and pavement of natural stones)
• patches=* (especially with asphalt; "patchwork" would afford different terms of quantification)

each with the values:

• *=no (only in contrast to neighbouring ways)
• *=few (rather in contrast to to neighbouring ways)
• *=significant
• *=many
• *=deep (for ridges & pot-holes only)
• *=many&deep (for ridges and pot-holes only)
• *=most (for displaced_stones only)
