Ok. Does it matter? From what I understood so far most wiki pages describe `properties` e.g.: Key `highway`the difference of a feature and a property is that a property cannot be tagged alone, it requires a feature (e.g. "surface", or "oneway", or "height"). On the other hand, a feature is defining a "thing", e.g. a highway defined through the tag "highway". It is not a property, but a feature (and the values are different "classes" of this feature).OSM does actually not explicitly make this distinction (AFAIK), but it is implicit in how people are using the tags.Cheers,Martin
