Hello! I’ve just started using StreetComplete, and I want to make sure I understand the answers before I go through and make a bunch of garbage data.

In this picture, is the kerb a ramp, or flush?

The sidewalk deflects downwards, but it’s not a ramp ramp like the example picture.

How about this one?

The kerb itself dips, but the sidewalk on this one looks more flat and does simply run into the road. And then it has the texture, obviously. Is this one different from the last one?

Also, just to check, I marked both of these sidewalks as “concrete”. That’s correct, right? I wondered about “concrete plate”, because they’re segmented, but the picture made concrete plate look much more substantial.

My other question was based on the “lit” tag for a bus stop. This bus stop has a street light near it, but there’s no light on the bus stop itself. It sounds like that means it is lit? Would a non-lit stop just be one that is fully dark at night, then, with no kind of lighting anywhere near it at all?

This one is further from the street light, but still has line of sight. Lit?

Thanks very much for any help you have!

    One is a ramp, concrete sidewalk and asphalt ramp, two is flush, all concrete with a textured plastic plate for the vision impaired.

    I would say neither of those bus stops are lit, in my mind the shelter should provide the lighting but I could be wrong.

      Yeah, my original interpretation of lit matched that. I have seen bus shelters with lights in my life, and this isn’t one of those.

      But the wiki makes it sound a bit more vague, even saying a footway lit by the glow of a nearby billboard is lit. But at that seems a bit… useless to me? Since basically anything within a city that isn’t a forest will be lit by some kind of glow.

      So that’s what made me wonder if this tag really is effectively meant to indicate full darkness, essentially?
