Re: [Imports] Importing tags for buildings

[Gertjan Idema]

Hi Raymond,

You can restrict the amount of data if you only download the required ways:

http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/ways?ways=261408697,2027616672,20158063352,20158063353 
etc


For large datasets you might consider using a mirror of osm and/or 
download in batches.


Groeten, Gertjan

A straightforward way to do it is to download the area as osm xml and
then process that file to add the new tags following the JOSM file
format:

You'd add tags to the appropriate ways and set action=modify for those
ways. The round.py script here modifies an existing tag instead of
adding tags, but it shows the general idea:

Thank you for your comments. This is very helpful. Please see short
comments below.

Ok, got it.

Yes. These razed/abandoned tracks have been in OSM for many years now in
Norway but so far with no objections. Will keep this in mind. I believe no
new razed tracks will be introduced with the import. The existing
razed/abandoned tracks belong to relations for historic railways and are
used for the live OSM maps in Wikipedia. Example:
https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treungenbanen

I believe all names are real, typically "Bergensbanen" and similar. Will
check a few sidings.

I registered with the Openrailway mailing list on 7 March (and a couple of
times after that) but so far I have not been approved, so unfortunately I
have been unable to send the import plan to that mailing list.

Hi,

I have not reviewed the whole import yet but here are some things I found:

Could you please use construction:railway=* in addition to
railway=construction? The same applies to disused, abandoned and razed
tracks.

Your import page mentions railway=razed. Are you aware that some
community members think that overbuilt railway lines shouldn't be mapped
in OSM?

If the name tag of a railway line is just the concatenation of two
station/place names, it shouldn't be added. name=* is reserved for real
names and some features don't have names.

Examples for some German names which aren't real names from my point of
view:
Hannover–Celle
DB Wanne-Eickel–Hamburg

But the following German names are names which should be added:
Linke Rheinstrecke [Left Rhine Railway Line]
Schwarzwaldbahn [Black Forest Line]
Berlin-Hamburger-Bahn [Berlin–Hamburg Line]
Schnellfahrstrecke Hannover–Würzburg [High Speed Line Hannover–Würzburg]
Lehrter Bahn [literally "line to Lehrte"]

I have not received an email from that mailing list. You have to be
subscribed to that list to send emails to it.

Best regards
