By "meannings" I mean that some relations are made to build a bigger
geometry
(type=multipolygon is one), some to records facts unreleated to
geometry (i.e
type=restriction )
The question is how do we improve that, while keeping free tagging
system ?
By defining algorithms to work with relations in one place and mapping
relation-types to that algorithms in another place.
For example:
type=multipolygon --> build-polygon
type=route --> build-linestring
type=waterway --> build-polygon
type=restriction --> discard
... or type=restriction --> generate-node (to display a propriate icon,
a node right to (or left in GB) the "from" way with attributes
restriction=no-left-turn, orientation=25° could be used by the renderer
later to display a turn restriction icon on the map. As I would propose
to define the use of algorithms to be configured in any way, that would
be optional anyways.
type=windmils --> collect
The goal should be reducing the number of algorithms and re-using them
as much as possible.
I agree, as long as "as much as possible" refers to the re-use only.
Additional (and useful!) algorithms don't harm if they are not used.
