How to map
In most cases, you need to tag zone:traffic=*
and you do not need to tag urban=*
, because the correct value of urban=*
can be derived from the value of zone:traffic=*
. For example, zone:traffic=*:urban
automatically means urban=yes
and zone:traffic=*:rural
automatically means urban=no
.
However, for some values of zone:traffic=*
(e.g. zone:traffic=DE:motorway
), the value of urban=*
is not obvious, and in this case you can tag urban=*
explicitly.
