Layer Information
This service consists of a subset of features from OpenStreetMap.
This layer was prepared using osm2pgsql and Osmium.
Information has been clipped to the Kendall region. Features and attributes extracted for this service are as follows:
Non-Motorized Ways
This layer includes any transportation-related linear feature that is not meant for use by cars and other motorized vehicles, such as:
- Sidewalks
- Foot paths
- Hiking trails
- Bike paths
- Horse trails
Fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Class | The kind of path / trail |
| Surface | Whether and with what the path is paved |
| Operator | The entity that manages the path, if any |
| Access | Who is permitted to use the path |
| Horse Access | Specifically whether horseback riding is permitted |
| Bicycle Access | Specifically whether bicycle riding is permitted |
| Foot Access | Specifically whether pedestrian access is permitted |
| Layer | How the path relates to other features it may cross, as with bridges and tunnels. |
Access
In OpenStreetMap, access tags (and related mode-specific tags like horse, bicycle, etc.,) focus on what is legal and verifiable.
In the absence of explicit tagging, certain assumptions can be made based on the type of feature. A sidewalk, for instance, is assumed to be public unless tagged otherwise. Horses, however, may not be allowed on sidewalks, depending on local laws and ordinances. Conversely, a bridleway is, by definition, for horses.
Other values in this key can be quite varied. Users are encouraged to refer to the OpenStreetMap Wiki for more detailed information.
