Hi,
the wiki [1] states for riverbanks that
"These water areas should be tagged as either of waterway=riverbank OR
natural=water + water=river."
Why do we need both variants and why don't we just say that
waterway=riverbank is preferred?
Cheers

There is an original OpenStreetMap water schema with lakes as
natural=water, reservoirs as landuse=reservoir, riverbanks as
waterway=riverbank etc. It is a perfectly

Hi,
in some parts of the world, it's common practice to paint guidepost
information (destinations, distances etc.) on rock faces, trees, walls
and similar existing surfaces, rather than use purpose-made plates
attached to a pole. (Example:

There is data, what is measured.
With RTK GNSS, there is 1cm accuracy possible.
Should we tag this mapped data, so that we know the accurancy level of this
data?

There is no way to calculate the "opinnion" of the community and
authoritarian/dictator attitude of iD coders and lack of action ramped
up usage of nerdy schema close to original OSM one.
And there is nobody bold to solve this, as there is no governing

Yes, definitely. We used accuracy=* for this in the past, although I see it
is now a bit overloaded. accuracy:meters=* and location:accuracy=* both
seem to be widely used.
All of them should be interpreted as meters by default (i.e.,

landcover tags as natural=scrub or natural=grassland.

There are two very different things:

Please let us not forget that the wiki is supposed to document what is used
in OSM. In this case it should say that two schemes exist, and, if we have
good numbers for the relative use, we can add that.
Putting an advice to prefer one or the other is not within the scope of the
wiki in such a situa

Except cases where there is a clear agreement that some scheme is clearly
preferable,
but in such cases it is extremely rare for such scheme to gain comparable
popularity.

Hi Michal,
I would stay with information=guidepost for those.
They serve exactly the same purpose, so they should get the same major
tag. It's only the way the sign is made that is different. You can add
the common tags like "support", "material", "location" or "colour" to
give further details
Dear all,
I wanted to check with you which is the best way to map farmlands subject to
rotation of crops. An example could be of a farmland used for general crop in
one part of the year and left it at rest for the remaining part of the year,
being actually used as a meadow for animals grazing t
Thanks for the accuracy link
“you should mark the approximate accuracy of the given measurement as returned
by the instrument in the given instant.”
That is also better.
It is just, that you get a hint, source, accuracy, that the data is measured
in. Before you drag a node.___

That does not sound right to me. Why would you do that? A route relation is in

How would you indicate which relation
I think the Why question comes first!

There lots of forest roads/path, where the bicycle/pushed carried is

“the bicycle” “transportation vehicle” is prohibited.
Because, navigation programs do not us bicycle=no, as a hard no, there is the
