IMHO natural=pass would be the most logical way to do it. Natural
describes in it's vast majority geographical features as which I would
see a pass as well.

 Ah, yes, good point. Although it's slightly complicated by a pass
 theoretically being a point rather than a stretch of road. And that
 presumably makes it hard to render - you'd need to work out which way
 the point is oriented.


IMHO you don't. Simply render Simplonpass, 2005 m at the given point
in a pleasant font. Done.

[Tagging] Draft - Vegetarian/Vegan

2011-02-14 Thread Tom Chance
Hello,

Please read and comment on my draft proposal to improve our tagging of
vegetarian and vegan food:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Vegetarian

I want to use something more sophisticated than cuisine=vegetarian for
restaurants, cafes and shops.

Regards,
Tom

I am not an expert in this field, but maybe it would be better to do
it the other way round: yes/strictly, i.e. vegetarian=yes implies
available while vegetarian=strictly implies that no meat has ever been
fried in their pans ;-)

AFAIK there is quite a lot of differentiation in the vegetarian
community (e.g. Ovo, lacto, ovo-lacto, veganism, raw veganism,
fruitarianism, buddhist vegetarianism) if you are an expert in this
field, maybe you could extend the proposal to take this into account?

While I agree that this would be logical, the crowd has chosen otherwise ...

Rendering a single point and a label is often found on topological maps.

For street maps, you'll usually have a bridge like symbol which needs 
an orientation of the corresponding way to be drawn properly (as 
Osmarender is already doing).



Obviously, it would be much better than nothing if mapnik at least 
would just render a point with a label ... :-)

Why not simply use the same style as place=locality? They fit the 
definition (in fact there seems to be no reason not to apply that tag to 
passes other than redundancy).

Because I would like to see the elevation in the label - at least in 
higher zoomlevels.


Basically the same behaviour as natural=peak would be my favourite.

Well, tagging every unpopulated named place with place=locality is 
really misleading. A football stadium is usually unpopulated and has a 
name :-)


If we have a specific tag for a specific feature we shouldn't add more 
generic stuff to it IMHO. Makes it more difficult to render without a 
real benefit.

+1

+1. It is an unpopulated place, but more detail is better, and passes
deserve their own tag IMHO.

Even more than that, the definition of vegetarianism can vary from
person to person.  A vegan friend many years ago used to say that true
'vegans' dont use any animal product, true 'vegetarians' dont eat any
animal product, where some people dont follow that strictness as much.
I imagine that different cultures could have different definitions of
vegetarian too.

True.  My understanding is that most Hindus don't eat meat, but they do consume 
milk and other dairy products.

MHO, a vegetarian tag would be best expanded to any dietary guidelines.

For example, I can't have gluten, and some places specialize in gluten
free options. Big chains will have an allergy menu and include gluten,
but some places are actually specialty gluten free, just like some
places are pure vegetarian or vegan.

I'd suggest making the tag more expansive for this reason.
