new check proposal:

check description: street name contains only space / non-breaking space (alt+0160) / blank space (alt+255)
What is the problem: in old Cartouche many editors used non-breaking space or blank space as a street name just to distinguish between newly pawed roads and already finished unnamed roads in unnamed streets layer.
How to fix: use correct street name or check "no street" checkbox instead
Severity: warning
Countries: any country

Thank you!!!
My work is more efficient thanks to your app!

VERY good stuff here. Thanks! A suggestion:

Since dead-ends are supposed to have U-Turns hard disabled, it would be helpful to show the dead-end U-Turn alert for all end nodes that do NOT have the U-Turn hard disabled. Currently it only shows for hard enabled and soft enabled, it does not show for soft disabled.

Message #44 is for a segment that doesn't have any output to a drivable road, but the summary says "No connectivity from drivable road". It should say "No connectivity to a drivable road"


Description:
#44 The drivable segment has no single outward turn enabled. Enable at least one outward turn from the segment

Absolutely, glad to help! I have downloaded the list and will go through it tomorrow.

I didn't see anything specific in the road naming guide for the US, but the following are being highlighted by #94 "lowercase street name (except country-specific words)":

el
la
de

These show up in some states (CA/AZ/NM) and elsewhere as lowercase on street signs. Should they remain lowercase in WME?

if not, let's add them to the exception list for US
if so, I will correct these in WME to be UPPER whenever I find them

dbraughlr wrote:I don't see why they should be exceptions. All the lowercase ones in California are wrong and should be capitalized.

I stand corrected. I was doing edits in the SJC area and I could swear I had seen road signs that matched the lower case name in WME, but I have been unable to locate. I was likely mistaken. For now it seems like lower case names would be the exception, and 'la' and 'el' should not be added to the exception list. I think the summary from the other forum thread was "match the case of the road sign"

thanks!

Feature Suggestion:

Highlight railroad segments that form junctions with non-railroad segments.

According to the Wiki:

DO NOT create a junction between the driven road and the railroad.

Source: https://www.waze.com/wiki/Railroad#Railroad

I see this frequently in the northeast US where there are a lot of regional railroads that go through towns and for one reason or another someone formed a junction between a railroad and a driveable segment.

dbraughlr wrote:A Railroad segment must not be at a junction with another type.
A Runway/taxiway segment must not be at a junction with another type.
There must not be a junction with any drivable type and any non-drivable type.
A ramp must be connected at both ends and the junction at one end must have a freeway/highway/ramp segment.

Good point, perhaps instead my feature request should be:

Highlight Non-drivable segments that form junctions with segments of a different type.

This way if a railroad formed a junction with anything but a railroad, it would get highlighted. If a runway formed an intersection with a walking path, it would get highlighted. etc etc

[post edited to reflect actual update]
I saw in one of the recent updates:

- UPD 'Non-drivable connected to drivable': excluded short dead-end segments and segments with HNs

It seems that it's ignoring non-drivable segments all together. I have found intersections between streets and runways, railroads, and walking trails - none are being flagged by WMV 0.8.3
