improve display of public transport related icons in mappaint style

[Klumbumbus]

public transport icons are somehow confusing and need a complete review.
examples:
*public_transport=* should have higher priority than legacy
*stop_positions shows a hand in preset but a red dot in mappaint
*icons of platform and stop_position together with e.g. tram/bus/train/...=yes are confused
*aerial=yes ?? (wiki says aerialway=yes and also only for stop_position not for platform)

5 new icons in [o32316], [o32318], [o32319]

In 10429/josm:

see #11006 - rework of public transport mappaint style and presets, mainly icon improvements, prioritise ptv2 over legacy, drop transport types for platform

[Klumbumbus]

To avoid confusion during your plugin development. I reworked some of the public transport related icons. Maybe some minor tweaks will follow.

Hi Klumbumbus,

Thank you for doing this. Unfortunately the public_transport=platform nodes have become almost invisible now.

There is a style called PTStops, which does something a lot simpler:

squares for platform nodes
circles for stop_position nodes

white if bus, tram, etc are missing

blue for bus=yes
red for tram=yes

I had started to use that style and appreciated it a lot. Because when those squares/circles are white, it's immediately apparent somthing is off.

Of course there is nothing stopping me from continuing to use it.

Can you give a screenshot? To me it is good visible.

blue for bus=yes
red for tram=yes

For the "default user" it is better to have icons, because he doesn't know what the shapes and colors mean without to look in the documentation (or finding out by trial and error).

Because when those squares/circles are white, it's immediately apparent somthing is off.

This is possible also with the internal style for stop_positions (small red dot when vehicle type is missing (except for the still missing icons for shre taxi and funicular)). platforms are not designed to have vehicle types anyway.

[Polyglot]

platform ways don't. If platform nodes don't mention vehicle type, they don't get role platform when added to the route relations, so for the nodes it does matter.

Then this is a bug. Please create an own ticket for this.

In 10501/josm:

see #11006 and #13015 - add icon for public_transport=stop_position funicular=yes, icon see [o32421]

I cannot reproduce this with r10497 (route needs to have public_transport:version=2)

[Polyglot]

Back when I was discovering PT mapping, I'm pretty sure this was the case.

I tried it now, and either this changed, or I misunderstood.

Anyway, as far as I'm concerned, it's the platform nodes that get all the details:
name, ref, route_ref, operator, network, zone, etc.

so adding bus/tram on there is what makes sense to me. In fact, it's what my conversion script does with the data from the providers. (when calculating route_ref, it's obvious if trams and/or buses serve that stop)

stop_position has always been a second rate citizen over here. Not all 70000 of them are mapped and I won't put them in the route relations. I prefer to keep things as simple as possible.

Now since stop_position nodes are always part of highways/railways, it's already quite obvious which mode of transport they serve for. Not so for the platform nodes, so that's the other reason why it made sense to me to map bus/tram on the platform nodes.

Wiki says it the other way round for the vehicle types:

• ​http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:public_transport%3Dplatform
• ​http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:public_transport%3Dstop_position
• ​http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:public_transport%3Dplatform#Transport_mode_tags

To me it makes more sense to put the vehicle type at the stop position. Different vehicle types (bus, tram) can use the same way and stop at different positions (while having a common platform). One platforms can be for different vehicle types. It is more important to know where the vehicle stops (i.e. where I can enter the vehicle) than where I can wait for the vehicle. (It is not important if I wait for the bus at a tram platform or the other way round or if I wait beside the platform.)
