Hi all, Yet another discussion about values with units in the database. In particular situations of keys implying particular units (like voltage=* with Volt), would it be good to improve tools, editors, websites or any other stuff dedicated to human reading to get voltage=400000 displayed as voltage=400 kV ? (example given)
Because using raw voltage=400 kV in the db prevent queries like [voltage>20000] to be successful. Then store voltage=400000 is far way better but harder to be read by humans also. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Map_Features/Units doesn't help regarding such issues. In practice, valid units could be put on keys wiki pages, collected by taginfo and spread to any tools aiming to display formatted values. I don't want to break things but only improve them, all the best François
