As a person who deals with a lot of field collected data, not all of
it has to go in OSM. :-) I also deal with water point data, although
ours primarily comes from ODK. When it comes to data imports, sometimes
the best thing to do is do the import in phases. Any tag that doesn't
exist, or a value may need discussion on the tagging list, put it off
for awhile. Just having some data on water points is really useful.
Don't get too hung up in the deep obscure details. You can always add
more detail later. I'm made my own mistakes like this and had to clean
it up.
The pump:system does not exit in osm. It us a new tag. People that
collected this data have validated their data and unfortunately I am not
going into it to re-engineer it based on what feels and what doesn't.
I also have to deal with other organizations data models on water
points. Like I mentioned, not everything has to go in OSM. Some of those
details are only meaningful to the project funders. I haven't looked at
your files, others have been doing a great job there.
I am sorry but the data is pretty correct as it is. Unless, it is your
wish to do the field data correction, I am happy to surrender the
I think the point is people are trying to *not need* to do the field
data collection anytime soon. Believe me, field data collection is a lot
of time consuming work. Or a cleanup after your import, or having your
changesets reverted.
