Hi Tom, enforcement tag? Do you mean highway? AFAIK "enforcement" goes into the relation, not the node. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dspeed_camera > The key intermittent might be useful to indicate that the camera is > active on a random basis. > wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:intermittent Hi Warin, this makes sense. But what if there can never be a camera, for example because the installment lacks any hole or is too small? A Key:fake? I was thinking about a new tag altogether because it wouldn't require any change on the rendering side, or on the navigation apps. Besides, a "speed_camera" tag should mean that *there is* a camera, just like a building or a bridge or a tower. For example: http://frink.bplaced.de/blitzer/#map=16/45.4045/10.6316 There's never been a camera in any of those 5 boxes, and the OSM information in that area is totally useless. I don't think that's what OSM is meant for. -- Bye, Marco https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/marco69 _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
