[Tagging] How to include the new speed limits of Madrid (Spain)?

A few weeks ago has been aproved a new regulation on Madrid (Spain) and default speed limits have been modified in 80% of streets and several new limits have been created that I do not know how to represent in Openstreetmaps. The new limits are: 30km/h for streets with lanes = 1 (or without label

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - Tramtrack on highway

Hello again Thank you for the very good critical comments! It is obvious that my original proposal of a bicycle= -tag for this purpose is a bad idea, but it should be introduced as a more general tag. How should I proceed? Is is best to change the current proposal status to Canceled or Abandon

Re: [Tagging] How to include the new speed limits of Madrid (Spain)?

It reminds of this earlier discussion: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2018-September/039108.html. Sorry I didn’t take the time to read it all to verify but I seem to remember it was dealing with the same concern of tagging explicitly or implicitly (by tagging a parent area).

Re: [Tagging] Public Transport Timetables

Hi Leif, You made me do it! :-) I sort of stole your proposal and started creating a new one. It differs in rather important ways from your proposal, so I preferred not modifying your wiki page. I also think it's important to decouple the (voting for a) full timetable solution from the solution wh

Re: [Tagging] visa offices tags

Amenity=immigration They handle visas and passports and other paperwork needs of legal residents. This is not something for guests/tourists, but people (like me) who need to handle paperwork to continue to live in the country. It is the inverse of an embassy. Javbw > On Nov 3, 2018, at 12

Re: [Tagging] visa offices tags

Lots of people apply for tourist visas. They are not immigrants, so immigration does not fit all. I don't know if that particular office only does immigration visas, tourist visas or does any type of visa. I would prefer a tag suitable for an office that could do any type of visa, rather than

Re: [Tagging] visa offices tags

The office=government, government=migration tags already handle this, no? Sent from my iPhone > On Nov 6, 2018, at 7:06 AM, Warin <61sundow...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Lots of people apply for tourist visas. They are not immigrants, so > immigration does not fit all. > > > I don't know if that

Re: [Tagging] visa offices tags

There is no OSMwiki on what government=migration is about. If you simply use the common definition of  'migration' then tourist do not fit. *migration* is the movement by people from one place to another with the intentions of settling So a place that assist visas for tourist and business peop

Re: [Tagging] visa offices tags

I believe the initial email was referring to a private-run visa assistance company, like VFS Global? In the absence of a better tag I used office=company, but could see something like office=visa(_services) being suitable. It would need to be different for government agencies that might offer si
