Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
Just saying: Tradition among both cavers and hot springs bathing enthusiasts is to keep quiet about locations, passing the word though caving societies and word of mouth. Why? Because caves and hot springs that become well known get trashed, crowded, muggled, and/or shut down due to the above. I know of a number of each type of facility that I won't be adding to the map. I can't stop anyone from mapping them, but unfortunately it would be a shame if osm contributed to their demise. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

For the foreseeable future I don't think OSM is likely to be a major factor trashing them, other media are quicker spreading the news and lists of POIs.

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - drinkable
I'm thinking about transfering my proposal drinkable to a new proposal drinking_water. The proposed values can be the same. This means migration of drinkable=yes/no to drinking_water=yes/no. The new tagging-scheme use one tag for standalone features that can provide drinking water and to indicate whether water is drinkable for humans. It don't include a legal relevance. Then drinkable= will be deprecated. Up to now there is no approval and no wiki-page about drinkable. So we mustn't change a definition-page in the wiki. All changes refers to elements that already contains a hint to drinkable=. Up to now there is no approval about drinking_water. We mustn't change an approved definition. I don't prefer potable, because it is not in common use in OSM. What do you think? Going on with the existing scheme or making a new one?

I think, Onsen is the very unique word to represent bathing amenity, that water from natural hot spring. So, I would like to hear the situations of other countries. There is no single word in english that means onsen, so it would have to be several words at once. But there are other words that have been adopted (wadi, for example) to succinctly describe something that would need multiple words in english, so maybe they'll adopt the Japanese word here.

As said before I am not going to change the meaning. The value 'nach Vereinbarung' is used more often so that's another reason for that. I am generally opposing german language values in formalized tags *), especially where a generic fact is expressed that has a corresponding word in English like here. For this reason I am opposing that you normalize those tags as it would distort the actual tagging numbers and next time you'd be able to say that there are even more of these values, all unified in the same clean format ;-) In general I agree with you. But I see the comment in opening_hours more like the description key which can (or should) be in local language. I'm sorry but if it is description-like, then it is free text and shouldn't be auto-standardised in the manner you propose.

Opening hours really needs to be parseable, it contains data that is of value to data consumers (like routing software.) for example, the opening_hours format gets used for turn restrictions that have times attached and for seasonal roads. treating it as free form would be a disaster. richard -- rwe...@averillpark.net Averill Park Networking - GIS IT Consulting OpenStreetMap - PostgreSQL - Linux Java - Web Applications - Search signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
Also, as was pointed out earlier in the thread, some onsen are not associated with hot springs, but have hot sand instead.

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
That's true - this is a specific pool, and would be an amenity offered, usually to the public next to the sidewalk out front ( usually anyone walking by can stick them in) not an overall feature - like a drinking fountain. Sometimes they are inside, in a common waiting area, so if you decide not to bathe with friends, you can at least soak your feet. Perhaps amenity=foot bath? Maybe it's not best for bath type then. I dunno. Javbw PS @dieterdreist - I found the mailing list! I'll be asking about that civic land use shortly.
