    Hi,
    When a road passes over a dam, it seems usual (e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/80667335) to have the dam with layer>0, and the highway with no explicit layer. This is rendered correctly on online maps, but not in Locus. Is this a Mapsforge issue? Or should the highway have a higher level than the dam?
    Thanks

    The OSM-Wiki dose not say anything about using a layer >0 for a dam. It dose not even mention the layer-tag.
    So I guess, this layer-tags on waterway=dam are all wrong.
    This would be a question for the osm-forum.

    If it’s on the same level, it should have the same layer. Online Maps might have more sophisticated rendering rules, e.g. “ignore higher layer of an object above a highway if highway doesn’t have tunnel etc.”, which is hard/impossible to do in mapsforge maps. These rules are just there because of bad mapping like this.
