Dear all,
As you may recall, Transport for London (TfL) released as open data a major
new cycling infrastructure dataset. Various people within the OSM UK
community met TfL in the run-up to its release, and it was well-received.
The OSM wiki has a project page here:
Having both ref and id in the key seems a bit like overkill to me...
ref:UK:leedscc:bin ?

Hi,
The ID is only used for bins, so by the sounds of it we may as well go for
ref:UK:leedscc:bin:id so hopefully we won’t have to change it in the future.
Then if we end up adding more of LCC’s assets (which we might do in the future,
if we can persuade LCC to rely on OSM more) we can use a
I've seen requests (from the French) for refs to be country namespaced,
e.g. ref:UK:leedscc:id or ref:UK:leedscc:bin:id Seems like overkill to
start with, but then it does prevent duplication.
Is the LLC id a number used for bins only, or for all types of asset?

To avoid conflicts with Liverpool, or Lima, please consider using
leedscc:id etc.

ref:lcc=* would probably be best, or even ref:lcc:bins=*. There is an
activity going on at present to get these external IDs documented to
some extent, in the context of IDs that are used for correlation during
data imports and subsequent maintenance. It would fit nicely in this
list:
I can't see an easy way to do a 'twice per week' collection where the
particular days aren't known. Messing about in the validator
(https://openingh.openstreetmap.de/evaluation_tool/ ) and looking at their
examples (bottom of the screen) suggests that complex cases can be expressed as
a text
Thanks Tony – for the dataset I’m working on at the moment (which is all litter
bins excluding recycling) we don’t have any sort of data on what they’re
designated for. The only thing I could do really is use waste=trash for all of
them – is it worth including?
The other dataset, which is
Thanks for the suggestion Peter, I think ref is probably more appropriate then.
I’m fairly new to this as well, so I’m trying to get as much feedback as
possible.

Hi Patrick
There is also a key:waste for the kind of waste -

Hi Ken,
Yes that seems like a better idea, hadn’t seen that, thanks. Most of the data
is in the format mon/tue/fri etc so could be changed into the syntax shown on
the wiki, but others just say “twice weekly” – can this just be left as-is or
not? As most of this data has been entered by hand
I commend your efforts, but can I suggest a small change to your proposal?
(I am still a bit of a novice on OSM, so please feel free to tell me I am
totally wrong)
Rather than "lcc:id=1849" should you not use, "id=lcc1849", or perhaps
"ref=lcc1849", or even "ref:lcc=1849".
I am not sure which
Hi Patrick,
For the collection_days tag, it might be possible to use the same tagging
syntax as the collection_times for post-boxes and recycling bins. It's on the
wiki here-
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:collection_times
You can add days or days with times.

Hi Jez,
I agree, we are going to encourage them to rely on OSM as their main source of
data in the future, but whether they’ll use it for essential stuff like
planning collection routes I don’t know. We (ODI Leeds), however, will be
relying on OSM data, as this is all part of a wider project
