https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/antenna%3Atype#values mentions "parabolic_satellit" "parabolic_satellit_uplink" and "parabolic_satellite_uplink". I have two remarks about that...
First, evidently, "satellit" is wrong and should be "satellite"... Or have I missed something ? Unless someone explains that "satellit" is a distinct legit concept, I'll replace it globally with "satellite". Second, do we want to specify "_uplink" where appropriate ? Most parabola large enough to tag in Openstreetmap are going to feature an uplink. But most important, the physical features of downlink and uplink/downlink antennas are identical - the same antenna might even have more than one feeder to switch its purpose. So, should we have only "parabolic_satellite" or both "parabolic_satellite" and "parabolic_satellite_uplink" ? Or should we leave the antenna's purpose to a subtag (something like antenna:purpose=downlink;uplink;uplink/downlink;tracking;etc.) ? I admit I like the subtag option because it shifts the problem to somewhere it won't complicate the mapping of physical features... _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
