[Tagging] highway=crossing and crossing=*

Hi all, again and again I find roads tagged with highway=crossing instead of highway=footway [+ footway=crossing] or maybe highway=cycleway [+ cycleway=crossing] I think the wiki pages for highway=crossing and crossing=* are too confusing. While the tag wiki for highway=crossing is clear tha

Nodes don't have an orientation, so I find it useful to put crossing=* tags on the footway/cycleway, so I can render it with a nice set of black and white stripes. Eg: http://www.transportparadise.co.uk/cyclemap/?zoom=3&lat=51.74075&lon=-1.25238&layers=B0TF I also add the tags to the intersecting

[Tagging] Combined defibrillator with emergency phone

Hi Folks, what is considered the best way to map a defibrillator which is combined with an emergency phone? * Two nodes, one as emergency=phone the other as emergency=defibrillator * emergency=phone;defibrillator Or something else? Regards Thorsten ___

I would say two nodes at the same location. They are unrelated functions, just co-located. They can have different operators, contact info, etc etc. Trying to put two whole sets of data on one node is going to get ugly. If one function is clearly the primary function of the location (e.g. mountin

Unfortunately a photo was not provided so we only had the original description to go on.. In OSM there is the rule-of-thumb of a single real-life object being mapped to a single OSM object. Are they the same object with two functions, or are they two objects? I have a rather scientific way of loo

It's about a cabinat with a defibrillator in it and a button on it to call 112 as you can see here: https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/gmiQ8jjpqs9LqbQnXJe-_A/photo At the moment I'm mapping it with two nodes. One emergency=phone and one emergency=defibrillator. On 2016-02-06 18:22, Martin Koppenhoe
