[talk-au] Emergency Markers

2011-01-31 Thread Evan Sebire
Hi everyone, Over the past year I've slowly collected quite a few geo-tagged photos of emergency markers, now to tag them, was thinking something like: emergency=marker reg_ref= actual marker code, e.g. 'SYR103' It would be great if they were displayed on the map! Any suggestions? Evan

Thats true, it did strike me as odd how it's in the highway category but I guess it's because most locations where these markers would be would have some kind of vehicle access. Doesn't make sense putting emergency markers in places where emergency vehicles can't get access. On 01/02/2011, at

There are a few around here that don't have vehicle access (helicopter / foot only). It's just unfortunate that it was directly translated from German and a native English speaker did not come up with the tag. I did a search but didn't come up with anything, that why I posed the question to

Wasn't thinking outside the box on that one! Was thinking in terms of the time and effort required for emergency services to reach the location marker, say if it was located on a remote narrow and steep bushwalking track. But where there is a will, there is a way! On 1 February 2011 11:41,
