Render aeroway=jet_bridge

Open dktue opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Jet-Bridges are not being rendered at the moment but it would add to the map for airports.

Example: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/25766197#map=19/48.68937/9.19543&layers=D

aeroway=jet_bridge

3800 uses, so far fairly patchy, quite a bit of off-purpose use based on physical similarity:

I would probably be against rendering that at this time.

highway=corridor

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway=corridor

33k uses, broader meaning not specific to airports but much more widely adopted, better documented.

It might make sense to renderhighway=corridor somewhat like (but distinct from in some more subtle way) footway tunnels - but with a relatively late starting zoom level.

I suggest to re-purpose this issue to suggest rendering highway=corridor

Meanwhile openairportmap.org is there and the amount of aeroway=jet_bridge doubled within a year! I think it's time to reconsider to render this feature on the map. :-)
