as already pointed out, I didn't intent literally "their real spatial position" to indicate the stop itself, as this would only cause problems (e.g. if the sign is hung above the road, is on both sides etc.), and the precise position to stop is behind the stop line on the ground or if not present at a place where you can see the crossing roads. Tagging signs is still common and done by traffic_sign http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:traffic_sign currently it is used mainly for city_limit and some other signs with values in German coding. Second frequent value is indicating this http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Datei:Zeichen_240.svg&filetimestamp=20060917131312 There is also 8 stop-signs tagged ;-) (Code DE:206). They could also be tagged as traffic_sign=stop as this is the only traffic sign that is internationally uniform. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
