Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - temperature

Just a nitpicking detail, using 'degree' with the Kelvin scale was deprecated in 1968 by the 13th General Conference on Weights and Measures. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin#Usage_conventions Lukas Sommer wrote on 2015-02-05 08:50: I suppose that in most countries of the world, °C is th

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Grave

a "cenotaph", the only actual example you provide, doesn't seem to qualify as "grave" because "grave" is a place where someone is buried. Are you aware of the tomb-tag? It is not exactly the same then "grave", but it might be better suited for some stuff you seem to aim at with your proposal. che

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - temperature

There are cases where an approximate temperature is more useful than a single scalar number. For example a drinking fountain may be "chilled", but not operating at a single fixed temperature. Similarly there's a big difference in a tropical climate between a building with A/C and one without. And a

Re: [Tagging] How to tag a cistern?

The cistern is the storage tank. If there is access to the cistern water, that would be some form of water tap and should be separately tagged. Similarly a deluge shower and it's cistern or holding tank are probably better mapped as two objects. ___ Tagg

[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Reception Desk

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Reception Desk

This seems to have a bit of overlap with information to a large extent. Most have tourism information for the area they're located and vicinity and can provide a lot of the same stuff as a general tourism information office would. They just also rent space to park an RV (or even an RV or cabin), o
