Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Hiking_checkpoint
Oh, Gawd! I think you are right. So my newest proposal :) would be: checkpoint=hiking or cycling or whatever else and instead of hiking_course=value course=value?

I'm trying to keep in line with http://www.lpma.nsw.gov.au/survey_and_maps/scims_online/glossary and existing tags. So we keep man_made=survey_point, but we also add additional, survey_point:type=mapping_control_point survey_point:type=cadastral_reference_mark survey_point:type=geodetic_bench_mark survey_point:type=miscellaneous_survey_mark survey_point:type=permanent_mark survey_point:type=state_survey_mark survey_point:type=trigonometrical_station I used :type in case we want to add other :foo's to survey_point, but it could be omitted, I don't care so long as it is consistent and non-ambiguous. mapping_control_point would be your marks used as ground control points (GCPs) you see from aerial imagery. (wiki currently has aerial=yes) state_survey_mark would be the 50mm diameter plates with a dot in the middle found in footpaths/gutters, etc. trigonometrical_station would be the ones with stone pillars which you can place survey equipment on top of, which sometimes also have a big black circle on top. I'm guessing geodetic_bench_mark would be a mark used to monitor plate movement, etc..? I'm guessing cadastral_reference_mark would be a white peg or something a surveyor put in the ground to mark land boundaries? For now I'm using ref:ssm= to store the id number of the state survey mark. Thoughts? ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Le 19/07/2011 13:30, Matt a écrit : http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/splash_pad Please comment. Thanks, Matt This proposal seems good in my opinion. Just why don't you recommend to tag it as area ? We sometime see some smaller buildings tagged as area, if a precise source exists I don't see why it couldn't be tagged as an area too. Otherwise, could also be a good idea list tags that can be added to define more precisely the object (width=* if it's a node, when the splash pad is open/works, age restriction if there's one...).

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - playground:splash_pad
I'm glad you brought this up. I recently mapped a newly opened accessible playground that includes these sorts of water features, though it includes more features than the splash pad shown in the example picture, such as fixed water guns, and this interactive water canal: http://www.flickr.com/photos/63258265@N08/5749130062/ They alternatively call this a sprayground or spraypark. I happened to use playground=spraypark: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1648182 Searching for spray and splash on TagInfo I see the following: 70: dcgis:spraypark (from an import) 6: park_type=SPRAY␣PARK 5: amenity=splash_pad 1: leisure=spray␣deck 1: leisure=splash_pad For whatever it's worth, sprayground on Wikipedia redirects to "splash pad". I think playground=splash_pad is probably a good choice, as it is applicable to the small splash pads found in some cities, as well as a component of larger playgrounds. -Josh On Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 7:30 AM, Matt wrote: > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/splash_pad > > Please comment. > > Thanks, > Matt > > ___ > Tagging mailing list > Tagging@openstreetmap.org > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging > > ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - playground:splash_pad
Wasn't sure what a "splash pad" was and it looks like it's a North American term for the British "water play area"? In keeping with the language convention we should be using the British "playground=water_play_area". It's definitely a good thing to add, but I'd usually map it as an area rather than a node Jason On 19 July 2011 12:30, Matt wrote: > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/splash_pad > > Please comment. > > Thanks, > Matt > > ___ > Tagging mailing list > Tagging@openstreetmap.org > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging > > ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Still don't like "course". The term "course" is mostly associated with competitive events like racing. I think what you're describing is fundamentally no different to any other walking route, with the possible difference that the information describing the route is stored separately (ie, website, brochures, badges) rather than with signage. But that difference is easy to work into the existing hiking route scheme. (Yes, there is the issue of "super-relations", in that your "hiking course" could be described as containing other "hiking routes". I don't think that's a major concern though...)

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - playground:splash_pad
Thanks for the feedback. There is no wikipedia entry for "water play area". I'm not sure what language convention you are referring to. Can you please explain why the British term should have precedence? Doing a quick google search, it appears the term "splashpad" is used in the U.K. Matt On Jul 19, 2011, at 5:53 PM, Jason Cunningham wrote: > Wasn't sure what a "splash pad" was and it looks like it's a North American > term for the British "water play area"? > > In keeping with the language convention we should be using the British > "playground=water_play_area". > > It's definitely a good thing to add, but I'd usually map it as an area rather > than a node > > Jason > > On 19 July 2011 12:30, Matt wrote: > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/splash_pad > > Please comment. > > Thanks, > Matt > > ___ > Tagging mailing list > Tagging@openstreetmap.org > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging > > > ___ > Tagging mailing list > Tagging@openstreetmap.org > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
