Darwin-Adelaide is finished.
I'm down to the last three segments of the route (Adelaide-Katherine), and two are the big ones.

Yowza.

Is this going to get broken up by state? Given the sheer scale involved I feel like it should.

By state and by classification.

Over 600 points for AUSWA N1 and it's dragging the editor to a crawl, and I expect to add at least 200 more shapepoints x.x

Finally finished WA N1.
3332 miles long.
827 points, 280 visible, 547 hidden.
Average spacing: 4 miles
Average visible spacing: 12 miles

Time to work on the last segment.

This beast will need a .csv, but how should I approach this? Do we consider Route 1 as its own separate system, or as parts of the other Australian systems?
If it's its own system, I'm not sure that breaking the .csv into multiple files (by state/territory) is the best approach -- having a single one seems to be the best idea, and doing it in a clockwise manner by state then route classification segment (Northern Territory would end up having two entries in the .csv), with Tasmania at the end.

If it's part of the Australian sets as a whole, then distinct .csvs by region then system would be the way to go
(AUS-NT N routes, AUS-NT NT territorial routes
AUS-WA N routes, AUS-WA S secondary routes
AUS-SA A routes, AUS-SA B routes, AUS-SA M motorways, AUS-SA R Adelaide Ring Route 1
AUS-VIC A routes, AUS-VIC B routes, AUS-VIC C routes, AUS-VIC M motorways
AUS-NSW A routes, AUS-NSW M motorways, AUS-NSW NSW state routes
AUS-QLD A routes, AUS-QLD N routes, AUS-QLD M freeways, AUS-QLD QLD state routes
I haven't looked at AUS-ACT or at Tasmania yet to have an idea what they have)

Thoughts?

Even if you decide to have an own system for it, it must be split at the regional borders because other systems might be added one day.

It's a bit of a mess. National Routes/Highways (N) (and in some states, their state highways too) are being replaced with M/A/B/C. Most states have done it, NT and QLD haven't finished, WA is holding on to the old system.

Given we're talking national systems, surely have something more like:
  • ausm - Australia M Roads
  • ausn - Australia National Roads (in WA, and parts of NT and QLD. Also we'll ignore the Highway/Road distinction like we did for TN state routes, British A roads, etc)
  • ausa - Australia A Roads
  • ausb - Australia B Roads
  • ausnsw - New South Wales State Routes
  • ausnt - Northern Territory State Routes (being superceded by alphanumeric systems - already obsolete?. Also, yes, for some reason they are 'State Routes')
  • ausqld - Queensland State Routes
  • austasc - South Australia C Roads (C roads seem to be state numbered, rather than supposedly part of a national system)
  • aussac - Tasmania C Roads (C roads seem to be state numbered, rather than supposedly part of a national system)
  • ausvicc - Victoria C Roads (C roads seem to be state numbered, rather than supposedly part of a national system)
  • auswa - Western Australia State Routes
  • ausnswm - Sydney Metroads
  • ausqldm - Brisbane Metroads
  • ausvicm - Melbourne Metropolitan Routes (signed like old style state routes)
  • austr - Australia Tourist Routes (these seem to be a national system of numbered routes)

National Highway/National Route 1 is one route that's part of the national system - it's not its own thing, but has that super-status in the mind that's a cross between US66 and Iceland's Ring Road (also numbered 1).

No point in making a separate system just for one route when there are other similarly-designated routes. Sections of route 1 can be sorted into respective systems for N/A/B/M as appropriate.

Si's overall breakdown seems to make sense to me, although I would not append "c" to the ends of system abbreviations for those systems. For example "austasc" can just be "austas", since there isn't any higher level system specific to Tasmania which would take that abbreviation.

These should be broken down by region as well, no?
Something like

No. Same as usaus isn't broken up into 49 separate systems

alus, arus, azus, caus, cous, ctus, dcus,
deus, flus, gaus, iaus, idus, ilus, inus,
ksus, kyus, laus, maus, mdus, meus, mius,
mnus, mous, msus, mtus, ncus, ndus, neus,
nhus, njus, nmus, nvus, nyus, ohus, okus,
orus, paus, rius, scus, sdus, tnus, txus,
utus, vaus, vtus, waus, wius, wvus, wyus

but kept as a whole. Ditto usai and 52 systems, eure and 80 systems, etc, etc

South Australia also seems to retain the National Route shield for some routes, despite switching something to alphanumeric, and Tazmania retained National Route 1.

order by position on the route, rather than by where in the alphabet the state's code comes? (not that it currently matters as the site sorts it by region for display)
