[OSM-dev] proposal for mechanical edit reg. power_source + generator:source

2015-10-13 Thread GerdP
Hi all,

during the last days I've checked hundreds of places where 
OSM inspector 
http://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/
complains about something. Doing that I commented
this changeset:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/8335705

As don-vip suggests in his reply I propose a mechanical edit :
remove the tag 
power_source=xyz
if the element also has the tag
generator:source=xyz

as JOSM complains about the usage of power_source.

If this isn't the right list, please forward it.

Gerd

The tag you propose to remove is harmless. How do you know which tags 
data consumers are using? When you have confirmed with every data 
consumer that the change you propose will not affect them, or they have 
agreed to change, then I will agree, until then I disagree with this 
mechanical edit.

[OSM-dev] iD creates invalid (?) highway tags

2015-10-13 Thread GerdP
Hi all,

I wonder why iD allows to create ways with e.g.
highway=primary;service
or similar combinations?
I think the highway tag (as well as e.g. surface, tracktyp)
are meaningless when they contain lists. 

I understand that this can also be done using other editors,
but most of the cases that I checked showed  iD as the 
used editor.

Yes, I understand how this happens, but I don't understand
why iD doesn't prevent this action or at least warns the user.
I am not aware of many tags which regularly contain lists,
so I'd say it would be better to always warn or implement 
a white list for those tags in iD.
I am sure that it already would be a great improvement 
if the 100 most often used tags are checked.

This can occur when a primary and a service road are joined. iD does not 
know which one it is and so it concatenates them. iD displays the road 
then as "Highway" with this combined type as key=value.


I imagine this could be fairly hard to combat, GUI wise you would need 
special handling for highway types as some key=value types do contain 
lists.

Re: [OSM-dev] proposal for mechanical edit reg. power_source + generator:source

2015-10-13 Thread Colin Smale
 

As there is an indefinite number of data consumers, this is of course
impossible... How would you ever be able to update the tagging if you
have to get consent or acquiescence from every data consumer? What is
your suggestion for sorting out "spaghetti tagging"? How do we ever do
any "refactoring"? 

Sorry for the IT terms, but discussions analogous to this one come up
extremely regularly in the IT business, and the bottom line is that the
bullet needs to be bitten and you have to get your wallet out to sort
things out occasionally. If you don't, your maintenance costs will
sooner or later inexorably spiral out of control. And anyone who says
that this can be prevented by careful planning, doesn't understand how
agile businesses need to be to survive. The costs can be somewhat
mitigated by appropriate architectural decisions (analogous to having
tagging schemes that are e.g. extensible and easily maintainable) but
never eliminated entirely. 

So where do we go from here? Manual review, re-survey and retagging?

Whilst there are technical things that editors can do (P2's visual 
indication shows that semicolon values are "wrong" is one example), it's 
not really a technical problem.


New mappers that create something like "highway=primary;service" do so 
because they don't really understand what they're doing yet. It's not 
obvious to new mappers that a road called "High Street" needs to be 
split into several sections if part is primary, part residential and 
part something else.  The only way they're going to find out is if 
something that they see before they start mapping explains this (tricky, 
because it's a bit of an information overload if all they want to do is 
add e.g. a node for a POI).


Also, it's not always possible to pick things like this up within the 
editor at all; for example merging a "highway=residential; 
sidewalk=both" with a "highway=residential" that doesn't yet have the 
sidewalk surveyed.  Did the mapper survey the missing sidewalk or merge 
it my accident?


What we're going to have to keep doing in these cases is spotting new 
mappers and helping them when they get it wrong*.  Editing OSM is 
complicated, especially in detailed urban areas or where a previous 
mapper or import was over-heavy on the multipolygons.


Cheers,

Andy

Hi Andy,

yes, I contacted some editors and typically got positive feedback,
so it is clear to me that nobody intended to create unusable data.

I just don't understand why iD offers a method to combine elements
when this is such a tricky thing. Why would a "beginner" need that?

Yes, but JOSM presets and Wiki pages are not made by the community as a
whole, and can never serve as a reason for running a mechanical edit. It
requires only a very small number of people to devise a silly preset or
"vote" a tag to be deprecated; this absolutely must not lead to others
mass-editing OSM according to the wishes of that minority.

In that case, a change in JOSM would be the best solution.

Hi Gerd,

Such an edit can improve data consistency and your idea sounds good.

As a member of the team who supported the power refinement proposal
including the generator: source key, I just warn regarding the generator
value which was used instead of power=plant.
Power_source or generator:source should be used on devices which are
generating power.
May we can take advantage of such an edit to move this information on
devices instead on buildings or sites ?

All the best

It should not be a blacklist but a whitelist. Most tags make
absolutely no sense with a ; in them. Today its highway
tomorrow its landuse, maxspeed, bridge, tunnel, width, height
building etc which get combined.

The very easy fix is to refuse a merge/combine when there are
different tag values on the 2 segments with a popup. The user
then can cleanup by deleting the tags on one of the segments
and then join. (This is the proceedure i use with josm aswell
as its much quicker than to go through a lenghthy list of 
multiple choices)

The more advanced solution (But probably a lot more confusing for
the user) would be some multiple-choice like in josm.

I'd prefer the first solution. Still everything is possible
but its hard to get it wrong.
