PMJI, but this looks much like the end of runway 16/34 of Vienna International

It is a misconception to think either you support "relations" or you don't.
The relation concept is very flexible and open, allowing to map all kind of
relations between the member objects, which themselves could be other
relations etc., this means you'll have to write different code for every
type of relation (and often also for different ways of mapping the with the
same type of relation, think nested relations for instance). If you support
multipolygon relations (which are e.g. supported by osm2pgsql) this doesn't
give you automagically support for admin_centre roles as well. I agree that
it seems not too hard to support this particular role, but so far it simply
isn't there (AFAIK, maybe you can do it with lua?). "capital=yes" btw. is
the older concept, the admin_centre role and even the boundary relation
itself (of not the datatype relation per se) are more recent.

Interesting. So how is capital=* being used in Europe?

Just running the overpass API with capital* over some countries:

Spain: Using capital=8 extensivly (!!!) together with admin_level=8 not 
really using 4 or 6 though.


France, Italy have some capital=6 (Not many)

Germany, Romania some capital=4
Russia and to a small extent Ukraine capital=yes with admin_level=4

Lithania some capital="name"

Portugal, Beglium, Netherlands, Norway, Danmark, Sweden, Switzerland, 
Austria, Poland, Czech Republic taginfo=capital(except for maybe 
capital=2 and a few random tags
Looks similar for most countries in Eastern Europe but didn't check 
every single one.



=> Overall it seems like the high number of capital= usage mostly comes 
from Spain.

"... Czech Republic taginfo=capital" what do you mean?

So it seems that, except for Russia, the most common practice is as
described in 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/capital#Notes_on_actual_usage
. We should probaby vote on this proposal now and make this the
default practice. This makes admin_level unnecessary on any place
nodes.

It's easy to retag capitals in Brazil, and it would probably be easy
in North America and in Russia too. But local apps might not like it
very much. In Russia, apps could continue using admin_level for a
while and slowly migrate the capital=[number] tag.

Ooops. Must have deleted a line there. Bascally they are not using 
capital= at all apart for some exceptions as you can also see on taginfo.

In my opinion it is still flat out WRONG to use capital=[number] or 
admin_level=[number] on place nodes.

Re: [Tagging] capital and state_capital: how are they being used in your country?

2014-05-14 Thread Fernando Trebien
Following from Aleksandr Dezhin's "Why not use admin_level=* without
capital=yes?" in that wiki talk page, why not? Any place=city/town
with admin_level=2 is a country capital. Any place=city/town/village
with admin_level=4 is a state capital (at least in Brazil). This would
remove the need for a capital=* tag. Non-capital cities would have
admin_level=8.

What happens if the place node has a different admin_level than
specified by the relation would be... totally application-specific.

What about your capital? According to Wikkipedia that's a capital of the 
Federal District, too.

Brasília is the only exception which is a capital of two different
administrative levels. And both the relations for the federal district
[1] and the country [2] correctly express that idea. I know it's not a
rule that applies to every country, and precisely because of that it
would make even more sense to think about relations rather than node
tags to express the idea of a "capital" generically.

As long as you only look at admin_level=2 and =4 But even so what's the 
use of tagging it on the node when there are exceptions?

Exacly, so why tag the level number on the node when we have relations 
and can incude the capitals as role:admin_centre? And then there are no 
exceptions. Which is how it is usually done here in Germany.

I've checked the first 15 cities in this list:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_in_Germany_by_population

And it seems that in Germany's city nodes:
- the federal capital is tagged with capital=yes+admin_level=2:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/240109189
- state capitals are tagged with capital=4, some (though far from the
top of the list) also have is_capital=state
- others have neither capital nor admin_level tags

Things I did not understand:
- Leipzig has is_capital=county on the node but admin_level=6 on the relation
- Nurenberg has capital=5 on the node but admin_level=6 on the relation

And some of these relations (though far from the top of the list) are
not assigned an admin_centre role, even though the node exists.

It seems that German capitals follow the pattern capital=[lowest
admin_level of relations in which the city is admin_centre], except
Berlin.
