User Raymo853 and I are having a friendly discussion on changeset
50470413[1]. He has been adding the elevation of mountain peaks (in
feet) to the name tag. For example, he changed "Crown Point" to "Crown
Point 11,463 ft."[2] While the wiki doesn't specifically address the
issue of elevation as part of a peak name, it does say "Name is the name
only"[3].
Could we get feedback from the wider community on this?
That's what this is for: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:ele
The only catch is that it has to be in meters, so you would tag
ele=3493.9 in your example.
+1 to name tag is name only.
--------------------------
ele tag should be used for this information.
And I would think that the ele value can be in feet just like other
dimensional units of width, height etc.
Should this be put as a new proposal?
