Seems silly to waste space on stuff you can document in the wiki how about using man_made=gps_monitoring_station instead then? > I suggest that tagging somehow is understandable ideally without even > needing the wiki to look up what it intends. While that is a nice idea, it doesn't pan out that way in reality for various reasons, eg I'm a native english speaker and had no idea what highway=ford meant, to me it's a causeway but to OSM a causeway is something completely different, you are going to get regional differences that will necessitate wiki lookups or localised translations even from english in a different regional version of english. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
