Hi all, After a few months of RFC, the power/pipeline substation functions proposal is now open for vote. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Substation_functions Thank you to TOGA and Steenbuck for the time spent to bring comments on the Talk page.
A chapter is dedicated to concrete benefits it brings to OSM and tagging https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Substation_functions#Concrete_benefits This is a really technical topic and you may have concerns regarding the amount of proposed keys and their apparent complexity. The proposal is intended to give a better framework to match the reality and allows both mappers and consumers describe what they see and be sure of what they get when they query OSM. Since this proposal address particular situations, some keys won't be used a thousand times. The point is to use them when appropriate to bring a documented distinction from common cases and standards substations. Used definitions come from IEC 601 international norm. It was not possible to describe situations in the past with current tagging and I hope to propose something better to solve the problem. Feel free to give your opinion at the bottom of the page Vote is expected until March 23. All the best François
