mountain_pass=yes on a node of the highway or path: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:mountain_pass > Point A raised mass of land that projects over a lower area (water or land). I believe we discussed this a few months ago? It could make sense to have a tag like natural=promontory, but this are somewhat ill-defined. Basically, they are point on a ridge where the ridge line goes from relatively flat to steeply downhill, but it is not a local high point so can't be labeled as a natural=peak. From below it looks a bit like a peak from the right angle; many of these points or promontories are named. I suspect some are mistagged as natural=peak. We would need to write up a proposal page that made it clear when to use natural=peak (and natural=cape) instead of this tag, and what sort of features would qualify. I'd be in favor of using a tag like natural=promontory if the alternative is place=locality. > Head/headland A comparatively high promontory of land projecting into > the sea with a steep face. An un-named head is usually described as a > ‘Headland’ when a specific name is assigned, it becomes a ‘Head’. Use natural=cape for the extreme point of land into the sea along the coastline, natural=cliff for a cliff, possibly natural=peak as well if there is a local high point that is named. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
