Hi, Currently it is possible to select which OSM tags are converted into normal OGR fiels and select that the rest will be written into "other_tags" field, except the ones from the ignore list.
In case of PostGIS and hstore it would be sometimes good to have all the tags written into the hstore fiels, also those which are converted into OGR fields. I suggest to add an "all_tags" option which would concatenate all the tags into a common field except those which are in the ingore list. Alternatively there could be switch to change the "other_tags" behavious between "all tags which are not OGR tags of ignored" vs. "all tags which are not ignored" Adding a new "all_tags" option feels easier to implement but I can not really imagine why any user would like to select both "other_tags" and "all_tags" options at the same time. Osmconf.ini which would support the easy but perhaps stupid alternative would then look like this: # keys to report as OGR fields attributes=[list] # keys that should NOT be reported in the "other_tags" and "all_tags" fields ignore=[list] # uncomment to avoid creation of "other_tags" field #other_tags=no # uncomment to avoid creation of "all_tags" field all_tags=no The "all_tags" option is how osm2pgsql works with the -k parameter and having that in GDAL would help in using those two programs side by side. -Jukka Rahkonen- _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
