RIght. I dislike disused=yes´ because the mapped object still is _something_. It's disused for a particular purpose. If we're limited to disused=yes or abandoned=yes, then what would be the correct tagging for an object that I would tag as 'abandoned:railway=rail highway=footway', or 'abandoned:waterway=canal abandoned:bridge=aqueduct highway=unclassified bridge=yes'? (I've used both combinations.) For the former, the rails aren't there, but the grade is, and part of the official rationale for maintaining the trail is that the right of way will be available if there's ever a reason to lay rail again. For the latter, the bridge is still there, from its construction was clearly once a canal aqueduct, but today serves as a road bridge. (Most of the rest of the canal that it served is silted up and no longer navigable, but still very, very wet.) I've also mapped things like 'disused:amenity=prison landuse=brownfield' for a now-closed prison that the state is trying to find a buyer to redevelop. The buildings are still standing (and I understand are for the most part structurally sound), but what would a buyer do with them? -- 73 de ke9tv/2, Kevin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
