Re: [Tagging] leisure=swimming_pool for the pool or the complex?
I used to tag the area as leisure=water_park and the pools within as leisure=swimming_pool (with sport = swimming for those that are deep and long enough for competitive swimming). Usually there are other things withing the area like leisure=playground or leisure=pitch. I found no suitable tag to represent the grass area that is usually used to lay down around the pool, sun-bath, play or make a small picnic. Neither landcover nor landuse seem to fit. regards, Chaos 2013/7/23 Gerhard Hermanns gerhard.herma...@uni-due.de Hi, I don't agree with the use of the landuse-key. Landuse should be used for larger areas where you need a (generic) term for a conglomerate of objects (like landuse=residential for an area with houses, garages, gardens, streets - each of which can also be mapped seperately), but not for single objects like a pool. Am 23.07.2013 05:23, schrieb John F. Eldredge: I am saying that the land_use tag makes sense for in-ground pools, since they greatly reduce the odds of the land subsequently being used for some other purpose. In that case it would also be valid to use landuse=building or something like that because the same argument holds here. I don't think that the landuse-key should be used in such way. In short, I'm a bit concerned about the increasing use of the landuse-key for everything that covers a relatively small space, since the key is intended for large areas. Seoman Yes, I know such reuse does happen on rare occasions; the city of Nashville, TN, closed all of its public pools in the 1960's rather than obey a court order to integrate them, and turned at least one of the pools into a sunken garden.

Preferably you shouldnt tag streets with landuse=residential, as they don't take part in the land (are not lots but are public land open to every person for movement). There is no sense in requiring more than one lot in order to tag landuse, simply map what is there: if there is one single lot with a particular landuse this should be reflected in the mapping. cheers, Martin ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Your question was about a way used for nordic skiing in winter and that while being used for skiing it was one way but for the rest of the year was both way. So I assume that you'll be tagging it with piste:type=nordic, piste:grooming=*, piste:difficulty=*, etc. Seemed natural to me that piste:oneway=yes might fit. :) -Tod On Jul 23, 2013, at 6:22 AM, fly wrote: Am 23.07.2013 01:42, schrieb Tod Fitch: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Ski#Other_Features gives a piste:one way tag which seems like it should fit the bill. oneway:ski=yes/-1 would fit, too but you seem to talk about the piste feature. fly ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

There are some aspects of your tagging that do not match accepted OSM practice: - keys and values (except free-form values such as names) should be in lower case, so yes should be used instead of Yes, wood instead of Wood and so on - avoid abbreviations that are not self-explanatory. For example, I don't know what OT means - we do not usually use a NA value; instead we omit the tag There are also several overlaps with established tags as listed in a previous mail by Janko, so please use the existing ones where possible. Overall, I think it is very unlikely that a lot of your new tags will get much use by anyone except yourselves. They are tailored too closely to your own needs or are too vague. For example, things like building:condition=average are subjective and will probably not be used consistently, if at all. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

I expected a problem because the houses on each side were nr 1 3. - No problem, sir, everything was planned, you get nr 2 [normally on the other side] - ahem, there are 2 parcels between 1 and 3 - No problem, sir, everything was planned, see (pulling plates), you get nr 2a - ahem, I built my house on the second parcel - No problem, sir, then (swapping plates) it's nr 2b for you So did 1I live at mystreet 2b.

The guy living at nr 26 :-) I hope you won't mind my feeling that my house is the object and the numbers the attributes. Your speaking of objects and attributes delights me. That's exactly the way I think of the different features in OSM. Unfortunately, in the OSM tag definitions, there is no mention of being an object or an attribute. And in practice there can be much confusion. An object is the physical thing. It's unique. An attribute is the different forms, usage etc... of the object. It can be multiple. We've already talked of how to tag a château historical=castle It is strange to seem to say that a castle is "a historical", especially if it's not historical. In my mind, it should be: building=yes castle=yes (or =type IF AND ONLY IF any type is exclusive, e.g. =château instead of...) château=yes hotel=yes (because château can be used as hotels in addition to being château) historical=no (or yes or 1200?) Same kind of problem here with a sort of concrete basin, like a swimming pool, where fishes to be fished are thrown This object is undoubtedly a piece of water: water=? But OSM seems to require that object to be called "a natural", although it's not natural at all. Furthermore, I want to state that this water is made for leisure with a an attribute "leisure=". And once again, Osmose clashes with saying that "a leisure" is a conflicting object once again.

Re: [Tagging] new tagging scheme for detailed information.
Deat Steve Doerr It is not for tagging the room, just for the info whether the facility has operation(operating) theater or not. I could not find anything in operating(operation) theater on the wiki and in taginfo. Here, it is commonly called operation theater and even the hospital have board written operation theater. As for operating theater, even i am hearing it called so for the first time.
