[OSM-talk] amenity=parking, time limit tag?
I can't see a time limit tag at all, there is a lot of free council car parks in various places but they may have a 2 or 3 hour time limit on them. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] amenity=parking, time limit tag?
I see a problem wiith this idea. Only because councils change the times/prices reguarly. Often without notice. You can use many supermarket car parks for 2 hours but that could change depening on the seasons.

You can use many supermarket car parks for 2 hours but that could change depening on the seasons But it should be tagged nonetheless. The fact that there is a time limitation for parking is more important than the exact duration of that limitation. So maybe something like time_limitation=yes limitation_duration=3 (time in hours) Greetings, Peter ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

What I was referring to is free parking lots and they have fixed signs and they rarely if ever change. This isn't the same thing as on street parking which is also limited by time of day/day of week. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Councils change the street names, add bridges, close roads and change the speed limits too. And they don't ask us first. If you think your car park time_limit changes too often, you could try time_limit=variable ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Re: [OSM-talk] amenity=parking, time limit tag?
restriction=time_limitation Actually time is usually used in tagging for time of day, so perhaps stay_limitation might be more applicable for how long you can stay in the car park. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

Using the tag 'description=*' would help show users the most noteworthy details along with the phone # to call for more info.

It'd be nice if it would be computer readable, not just human readable since then you could tell some routing software to take you to the nearest suitable parking area. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

It is used anyway. What is difficult to parse? number,space,unit is parseable with a very simple regular expression. Even if you account for the fact that some people will forget the space. When searching for a parking space, it is even simpler. The software you use for that, doesn't have to understand the tag. It just has to display it. -- m.v.g., Cartinus ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
