One is that it doesn't really need to be more complex and that it's probably fine if I leave the role part out. Should I use it on railways stations with subway_entrance and parkings? ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

All ideas making data consumers life easier but mappers life much more complicated are failing. I'm not sure about this. What do mappers now? Mapping a building, an entrance, address and POI-data. The additional thing would only be the relation. It's additional work for the mappers and maybe there are some who wont do this, but it will improve the quality of our data.

Do you have a alternative suggestion? It's on purpose that I left the name of the relation a bit vague, so that one could expand it later with other roles besides the two (address and entrance) that I came now up with. Anyway, most of the mappers will prefer to create 1 node with duplicated address instead of creating 3 nodes and your relation. Please, think about contributors first. All ideas making data consumers life easier but mappers life much more complicated are failing. Sure, this is not basic level mapping but it builds on existing objects.

Each POI should have an address and the address is used to match the POI to the map. This can also be extended to ref tags, which are a generalized address, to add additional data to the map, such as informtion like ferry schedules. This seems like a debate about denormalized vs normal form in databases. Rather than looking at it that way, I think the questions are: 1) How do the various schemes affect our ability to use the data? 2) How do the various schemes affect the community's ability to edit the data. I think separate db vs in main db doesn't matter much for 1. The processing tools are high-leverage and written by small numbers of people. I don't think we are having a problem now. For 2, I add POIs with an editor, just like drawing everything else. So I think having a separate database would be a hindrance if the UI exposed it. If the UI doesn't expose it, it probably doesn't matter, but it seems like a lot of work, and I don't understand the gain. This may sound radical, but this is the way it is done almost everywhere else. If separate groups maintained the map and the POI list, it probably would make sense.

[Tagging] New relation type=provides_feature
Few days ago there was a discussion on this list with the subject Door to door routing to buildings with multiple occupants. My thoughts after the discussion was that with increasing micro-mapping we need a relation to tie different objects together. So I thought I would make a proposal for such a relation. Tags: type=provides_feature Members roles: target address entrance There has to be exactly one member with the role target, that would be the POI. There could be multiple members with the other roles. Currently I listed address and entrance as possible member roles, but the list could be open-ended.

See my previous messages for my opinions on addresses. We don't need those relations if we set each address on the the containing building/parcel/floor. A relation could be used to define which entrances connect to which POIs (shops etc.) in the building. But this is not in spirit of current indoor mapping developments. You'd rather use highway=corridor etc. to connect objects. - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Indoor_mapping. -- Friedrich K.
