README for merge-ways --------------------- merge-ways is intended as a preprocessor for certain rendering or other actions performed on OSM files. It finds adjoining ways and merges them into one way provided they share certain characterstics. Which characterstics these are is expressed in a function at the top of the script. It does not yet handle relations (might even break them by removing a way that was used by a relation). Another known bug is that it will happily join the opposing lanes of a dual carriageway if they meet at an intersection, often leading to the street name written in a 180 degree bend around the end of the street. The primary use is as a preprocessor for Osmarender when streets are split in many ways, none of which large enough to contain the street name.
