Re: [Tagging] Add some tag to identify disputed borders ?

Another related issue -- maritime disputed borders. In the case of Crimea, the disputed border with Russia is over water, thus not showing clearly in many renderings, and over land with Ukraine, showing as a solid line - thus appearing to side with the Russian interpretation. A while ago Paul Norm

[Tagging] Wastewater Plants

I'd like to expand tagging of wastewater treatment plants by adding in clarifiers and digesters to the man_made=wastewater_plant wiki page. This came about as I was editing an area with a wastewater treatment facility. I didn't know what the various parts of the facility were called. A friend who

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - (consulate)

Regarding the question of using office=* as the primary key or diplomatic=* I note that the Key:diplomatic wiki article admonishes: Note Do not use diplomatic=* without amenity=embassy since it is not independently recognised by renderers. How do we get around that (probably a naive q

Hi That's a good idea, other components of wastewater treatement plants should be mapped the same way Nevertheless, man_made isn't appropriate for that. wastewater=* or at least water=* should be used for such values, shouldn't you? All the best François Le ven. 26 oct. 2018 à 19:23, Clifford

[Tagging] Standardizing Mapillary tags and keys

Hello! I want to propose some new keys for the `mapillary=*` tag. I am looking for input on these, then would like to push for approving them (and update the Wiki). This will be helpful as some street-level imagery tools like Pic4Review automatically add tags. At State of the Map US there was a si
