"BTS" is another object and differ from antennas since the antennas are connected to BTS/nodeB/eNodeB.
Both can be mapped with telecom=* and BTS will often get man_made=street_cabinet Recently reviewed Telecom=service_device is suitable for "BTS" cabinets with telecom:medium=radio and aditional tags for 3GPP technology 2G/3G or LTE. Several antennas can be fed by a single radio cabinet François Le sam. 24 nov. 2018 à 15:51, Sergio Manzi <s...@smz.it> a écrit : > I like it! > > To me it makes much more sense to tag telecom=BTS (Base Transceiver > Station, see [1 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_transceiver_station>]) > than man_made:antenna + antenna:type=whatever. > > But BTS is not indicated as possible value for telecom=* in the wiki... > > Cheers, > > Sergio > > [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_transceiver_station > > > On 2018-11-24 15:22, François Lacombe wrote: > > Hi all > It would be great to use telecom=* instead of man_made or communications > > Antennas is a difgicult topic to address in osm since there can be many of > them at the same time.
