Re: [Tagging] [Talk-us] New MapRoulette Challenge - Add Surface to Highways

That's just wishful thinking. They all came up with Overture Maps precisely to focus on a more data-driven approach and avoid the whole community-consensus debate. If they wanted a round-table talk with us, they would have organised it themselves long ago. Just take their MR challenges for what th

TomTom has created the same challenge for the Netherlands: https://maproulette.org/browse/challenges/37471 Just days before that challenge was created, I had a discussion on Discord with some other Dutch mappers. I thought it would be easy to tag all remaining highway=motorway without a surface ta

@Marc_marc You make a good point, but I see it more as a way of linking tags, as you suggested before. That said, I hadn't noticed that the tag office=construction_company is already documented and in use, so I guess that would be a good tag to use. * https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag%3Aoffi

Hello. I suggest that you have a good look at the following pages: * https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Any_tags_you_like * https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Joto/How_to_invent_tags Going through a proposal process isn't always necessary; you can just document your tag and give it the stat

Re: [Tagging] Relations of type=site + tourism=camp_site

2022-11-11 Thread Casper Kersten
Site relations are usually completely redundant if you just tag an operator=* tag. A tourism=camp_site closed way or multipolygon is, of course, a camp site, and a shop or parking area on or belonging to that camp site should get an operator=* tag with the same tag value as the name or operator of

@Marc_marc - limit to 1 simultaneous proposal per person? I oppose this idea. Sometimes people just have plenty of free time and good ideas and use this to make and share proposals. I see no reason to hinder them. - limit this to active contributor status in the osmf sense? I strongly oppose th

2022-10-11 Thread Casper Kersten
As I mentioned on the community forum, the historic=* key is full of tags that should really need to be revisited, changed or redefined before they can be voted on. I strongly advise against approving all historic=* tags en masse. Elaboration on the community forum: https://community.openstreetmap

P.s. Citadels and fortresses were complementary for a city's defence, but do not always coexist. Also, some fortresses have been (partially) demolished but the citadel have been left largely intact, as is the case in Lille, France. Op ma 3 okt. 2022 om 22:49 schreef Casper Kersten : >
