How to map
Use the tag on a node 
. The node should be shared between the highway and railway.
- railway=level_crossing obligatory
- crossing:barrier=* obligatory
- crossing:activation=* - the type of operation
- crossing:activation=automatic - by treadle or contacts detecting a train
- crossing:activation=local - locally operated by railway staff (e.g., train conductor)
- crossing:activation=remote - remotely operated by railway staff (e.g., signalman)
- crossing:activation=user - operated by users of the highway
Two sources can be worked together crossing:activation=automatic, crossing:activation=local crossing:activation=automatic,local to show where multiple activations are required to set activate the crossing.
