+1, the Albert memorial should be tagged as a monument in OSM.




 In British English yes; but the issue is that in other cultures (and
 languages) a monument is a historic building. See:

http://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/





It doesn't matter for us. We are tagging according to our conventions as
defined in the wiki...

 If it is 10 metres high .. but 50 millimeters diameter ... is it still
 'large'?



yes.
I agree it is relative, a motorway with 10 metres length would be rather
small ;-)

5 meters is large ;-)
a monument can be a building, but it can also be something else.

IMHO it also depends on context, if you are in a monumental setting with
everything huge, a 5 meter stone cross might be just a small insignificant
part of it, and could eventually be considered a memorial by the mapper, if
instead this is an isolated feature I would be more inclined to map it as
monument.

 As far as I can tell, the distinction is about size, but vague words like
small and large used, and the examples given are at the extreme ends
(building vs. plaque). People need more guidelines to know where the
dividing line is in the middle. For example, is there a certain height (3m?
5m? 10m?) where a tower or pillar changes from memorial to monument? Or a
certain amount of area (10 sq m? 25? 100?) something covers to change from
memorial to monument?

By way of example, on the historic=memorial page, there is a photo of a
stone cross over 5m tall which could certainly fit the way monument is
defined on that page An object, especially large and made of stone, built
to remember and show respect to a person or group of people

I don't especially care where the line is, but if people are concerned
about mistagging then this should be clarified.

In Croatia historic=monument is often wrongly used to tag all types of
sculptures. Only a dedicated icon for sculptures (tourism=artwork +
artwork_type=sculpture) can fix that.

Re: [Tagging] Tagging of historic=monument

2015-05-06 Thread Bryce Nesbitt
The problem may relate in part to Germany, where a natural monument is a
thing.

Also in the USA the tag is ambiguous.
historic=memorial perhaps better fits the definition.
But even then there are many small memorials and roadside plaques that
could reasonably be tagged historic=memorial or historic=monument,
but don't seem to match your definition well.

It would help if the agency certifying the monument were identified per
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/heritage
For example:

heritige=2
historic=memorial
heritage:operator=nhrp
ref:nrhp=nhrp=07001063

[Tagging] Tagging of historic=monument

2015-05-06 Thread Matthijs Melissen
Dear all,

Openstreetmap-carto (the default rendering style on openstreetmap.org)
will soon render objects tagged historic=monument with an icon.

There is currently a large number of objects incorrectly tagged as
historic=monument.

The definition of historic=monument according to the wiki:
'A memorial object, especially large (one can go inside, walk on or
through it) and made of stone, built to remember, show respect to a
person or group of people or to commemorate an event'.

Note that this tag should not be used for national heritage buildings
(called listed buildings in some countries). The word 'monument' does
not have this meaning in English. Instead, historic=yes, the heritage
key, or the listed_status key could be used for such buildings:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:listed_status
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/heritage

It would be good to correct as many incorrectly tagged objects as
possible before the tag is rendered. This map can be helpful for that:
http://www.historic.place/themes/monuments/map.html

See https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/1532
for the discussion on Github.

If taken that way then the British and Australian National Trusts would 
level 2.


If it is not clear (as in very obvious) to me .. then it probably is not 
clear to others
Stating how the level is determine would be more usefull than the table

I have re-tagged some of the 'monuments' to 'memorials' where I am 
familiar with them. They became eveident due to my use of OAMand that 
renders these tags.
If other renders were to do the same then more mappers would be aware of 
the problem and it would be corrected with local knowledge.
So rendering these without any correction will lead to corrections 
taking place as required with the best knowledge - that of the locals.
