This is going very off topic, sorry for hijacking the thread. But anyway, it was a city gate, distroyed in WWI and rebuild as a city gate and a monument for several thousand missing soldiers. After the tyne cot cemetry, it's the most important WWI monument of flanders. So it is both, monument and

Well, I just don't know any gates with names, exept city gates like the Menin gate in Ypres, but they can't be closed and I should not tag it as barrier=gate but rather as a building. I never heard of gates that can be closed and are still important enough to get a name. ___

[Tagging] Named gates

2011-07-29 Thread Josh Doe
I've noticed that barrier=gate nodes with a name=* tag don't show on the main OSM Mapnik layer. Is there another way I should be tagging this, or should I submit a ticket to change the OSM Mapnik stylesheet? In some areas gates are well known by their names, such as on military installations. -Josh
