Re: [Tagging] Combining gas stations convenience stores
Hi - It doesn't make sense to me to have a specific tag for fuel and convenience. Maybe I misunderstand you. I would say, keep copying the addresses! There are lots of situations where multiple co-located items have the same address, e.g. a small post office inside a supermarket. If you invented a new tag it would be harder for people to find the convenience shop...

[Tagging] New tag value in access? authorised [fork from: access in the wiki]
/ DISCLAIMER / Starting new thread for side topics from: [Tagging] access in the wiki I would happily read more feedback from Martin and other contributors on authorised because it would certainly help with some limited traffic zone, bus lanes, residential streets... (2) proposing access=authorised Would another generic value like access=authorised allow a useful distinction from access=private? Martin Koppenhoefer dieterdre...@gmail.com wrote: no, its the same Quite a short answer and I am not convinced yet. private: Only with permission of the owner on an individual basis. - Apply on a private road for residents, privately invited people, very local delivery...; it has some overlap with *=destination and *=delivery. authorised: Only with authorisation (from public authority) by regulations (=collective basis) and special exemptions. - Apply on a public road for special permits, emergency vehicles...; it does often include emergency vehicles at least but it is not limited to them. Anyway in most cases people wondering do I have access? simply do not have access. If you have access you know it. Did you look at some of the examples in the links [7,8,9,10]? I feel private is not suitable there. How are tagged today the real-world authorised vehicles exemptions or signs with authorised vehicles only? I don't think a bus lane with special exemptions for authorised vehicles should be tagged motor_vehicle=private. Nor that private can be used on any street or public road with no private 'owner'. As I understand you consider that the 'public owner' (city or country or whichever administrative level) can be viewed as the 'private owner giving permission on an individual basis'. IMO that is quite a twisted and misleading use of the words private/public. So... did I miss something? Martin Koppenhoefer dieterdre...@gmail.com wrote: this won't work (we should have vehicle specific tags, not general ones), and authorized as a value seems the same than private.

Re: [Tagging] Combining gas stations convenience stores
You could also put the address information on the building and place the two POIs inside it. At least Nominatim supports this. There is no reason why another program cannot find the surrounding building. Of course this is not as easy as taking it from the node. Since this is a rather recent feature, I've always doubled the address information. regards m On Fri, Dec 5, 2014 at 6:19 AM, Hans De Kryger hans.dekryge...@gmail.com wrote: Hopefully this gets enough attention on the tagging list.

My tags are for streets highway=*; not for a polygon. With direct tags and no need for inheritance from polygon to ways. Neither am I proposing inheritance (too complex, not very transparent). I meant to say that this tag is intended to map the actual zone (its name, its ref, its area and boundary, its operator, etc.). No need to have this on the individual highways, it is sufficient to have the actual (typically time-dependent) restrictions on the highways. Go beyond my summary and see explanations in my post instead: So possible tag for a ZTL in Italy could be: highway=IT:limited_traffic_zone (scheme similar to highway=living_street) OR highway=residential/pedestrian + zone:traffic=IT:limited_traffic_zone (scheme similar to zone:maxspeed=FR:30 or zone:traffic=DE:urban) As you mentioned these schemes zone:*=[country]:* follow practical tagging on each street not zones. no, these zones are nothing country-specific, they are city-specific. This is really another thing than a 30-zone in Germany for instance. It is not the primary tag, just an additional tag + zone:*=* and merely indicates that a particular way belongs to a real-world zone. There is no use (IMHO) in adding these duplicates to individual ways, you can see from the boundary that there is this specific limited traffic zone. Several road classes (from motorway to residential and special road types like pedestrian, living_street...) could benefit from sensible defaults. AFAIK some road classes do already imply defaults. defaults are something for that data consumers need when actual data is missing. ;-) Furthermore these defaults can be country-specific. Access restrictions could similarly be included as defaults in a road class. there are wikipages that try to define these defaults, and there are common assumptions for specific road classes (e.g. motorway, pedestrian), also country specific ones. IMHO this should not be used to remove tags that are defined as default. In a system like OSM you always have the problem that the absence of a tag can mean 2 things: incomplete data/mapping or default data. Until you add the tag you won't know.

Re: [Tagging] Zones and defaults [fork from: access in the wiki]
defaults are something for that data consumers need when actual data is missing. ;-) YMMV... My current point of view is different: + defaults are something to make tagging easier and more efficient. + They allow redundant data to be missing and thus make the database cleaner and smaller. + If the default value must be changed (e.g. the regulations are changing) the bulk of the modifications is smaller. Also please imagine a new local mapper willing to add data. If it is easy to improve a bit the map with one straightforward tag (e.g. highway=living_street) then documentation, translations, answers and mapping are easier for everyone. If it needs a full chain of tags: highway=residential + motorcar=private + emergency=yes + psv=yes + disabled=yes + ... and full understanding of the access key, access wikipage, in English only; acronyms, caveats like access=yes and access=no... That is another story altogether. One single error in the tagging can screw it all. Maps are done also by local people for local people. Not only by very experienced OSMers, skilled with computers and fluent in English for fellow taggers. IMHO this should not be used to remove tags that are defined as default. Not proposed, not mentioned, not in my mind. In a system like OSM you always have the problem that the absence of a tag can mean 2 things: incomplete data/mapping or default data. Until you add the tag you won't know. That is right. And this is something I can live with. If I wanted to address this issue as simply as possible: e.g. highway=* + [maxspeed not set] is mapped correctly and the default maxspeed is adequate. But I want to indicate that maxspeed is known for real and it is not incomplete data: - highway=* + maxspeed=default Of course some people are not favorable to defaults or they have different limits on what is acceptable. So any discussion on the subject is a hard one. If there is no consensus on using defaults: yes or no, it becomes difficult to discuss how to choose default values, how to tag values identical to default, and so on... Please search the archive, this was discussed several times in depth. Nice proposition. Searching=default is always a good start but... would anyone care to point other keywords that could lead to interesting discussions? Also is there some meaningful wikipage and proposals [draft/rejected/accepted...] specifically on the subject of defaults? other than: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_tags_for_routing/Maxspeed#Default_speed_limits http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_tags_for_routing/Access-Restrictions#Default http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/access_restrictions_1.5#Default_access_restriction_values http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations/Proposed/Defaults ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

The grocery store is 24/7 but did close for Thanksgiving; I didn't check if the pumps were left on or locked down for the holiday. But the setup of having 24/7 pay at the pump for credit/debit/gift card purchases is not uncommon. In fact, Exxon used to run a few entirely automated gas stations (including cash at the pump!) under the Exxon Express label (but this didn't last). -- Shawn K.

Re: [Tagging] Zones and defaults [fork from: access in the wiki]
Am 05.12.2014 um 16:13 schrieb althio forum: defaults are something for that data consumers need when actual data is missing. ;-) YMMV... My current point of view is different: + defaults are something to make tagging easier and more efficient. + They allow redundant data to be missing and thus make the database cleaner and smaller. + If the default value must be changed (e.g. the regulations are changing) the bulk of the modifications is smaller. Also please imagine a new local mapper willing to add data. If it is easy to improve a bit the map with one straightforward tag (e.g. highway=living_street) then documentation, translations, answers and mapping are easier for everyone. If it needs a full chain of tags: highway=residential + motorcar=private + emergency=yes + psv=yes + disabled=yes + ... and full understanding of the access key, access wikipage, in English only; acronyms, caveats like access=yes and access=no... That is another story altogether. One single error in the tagging can screw it all. Maps are done also by local people for local people. Not only by very experienced OSMers, skilled with computers and fluent in English for fellow taggers. Well, you definitely hit the best example. highway=living_street is one of the major mistakes in OSM-history and should be living_street=yes with the proper highway=*, similar to motorroad and bicycle_road. defaults value might help but e.g. the last change in German law changed the default value for motor_vehicle for bicycle_roads form yes to destination but the change is fluently and one by one which means the only possibility to get the right access tags is once again by tagging them. Similar is true for zone:*=*. These tags are additional tags for source:*=* and hints for other mappers but it is no substitute for the real key and its value. cu fly ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] Combining gas stations convenience stores
Problem with this idea is usually the fuel is not sold in the convenience store, and at newer convenience store models that actually care about their customers beyond being a walking wallet (ie, OnCue, QuikTrip) will have a separate driveway and parking area behind the store so you don't have to get all caught up in the busy fuel line just to run in and get a cup of coffee. Therefore, separately mapping the store and the fuel line is definitely appropriate as any halfway decent routing engine seems to be pretty good about picking the driveway that doesn't get you caught in the ratscrew if you tell it you want the convenience store, not the fuel line.

Anyways to my problem. One of my passions to map in osm is gas stations. I've done hundreds since I've joined and now have fully come to realize a persistent problem that occurs frequently. The duplicate address tagging of a gas station and convenience store run by the same company. For example, say i just added a circle k gas station down the street from me to osm. But the gas station also has a convenience store. Well i have to copy over all the address info from one poi to the other since leaving the address Field blank makes no sense if someone would like to get there using a navigation app. I have thought about it a lot. And i go back and forth thinking both places should be tagged. Still a part of me thinks it makes no sense to have a address for a gas station tagged twice. One reason we cant completely combine the gas station and convenience store tag is some gas stations have the convenience store run by separate companies. As is the case with a circle k down the street from me. The convenience store is a circle k but the gas station is a shell. It would be nice to have a separate tag that combined the gas and convenience store shop together. I just want to make clear i don't want to get rid of the existing tags i just want to add one. *Regards,* *Hans* ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Also the address belongs to the whole area and that's the way I tag gas stations: - Draw an area to cover the complete gas station and put amenity=fuel together with additional tags like the address on it. In my region it is usually quite clear on an aerial image where the station starts and where it ends (some kind of fence, barrier, whatever, ...).\\\ That'd be a better polygon for landuse=retail. Odds are you're not going to be getting gas out of the air compressor or a parking space in the far corner. Or the car wash, if there is one. - Draw the roads (highway=service) and buildings (building=yes resp. building=roof + layer=1) - Additional attributes like amenity=car_wash, amenity=parking, shop=convenience go to there actual position, i.e. if there is a convenience store in one of the buildings I add the tag there. - No need to provide the address more than once: the address belongs to everything within the area tagged with amenity=fuel Except now people can't use it to have a routing engine find the fuel line for 'em. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
