Re: [Tagging] Proposed Feature - Public Transport - Voting
I guess I can answer some of the questions. 1. In the provided links I can see all the street names in German. Do you have any examples of uses outside of the German cultural raum? We in Russia have created several routes using this schema. For example, http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/407276 There was a large discussion on public transport in our forum, and by now every participant of that discussion has stated their approval for this proposal. 3. How do you intend to scale the level of difficulty? What is aimed at beginners, and what is for intermediate and advanced mappers? Have you included any of the suggestions from the earlier conversation on the newsgroup? Not all elements of the proposal are marked as required. Old PT schema is still supported with this proposal. A beginner can map just routes and public transport stops, like before, and it still would work. Only the tagging have been changed: various bus_stop, platform were replaced by a single public_transport=platform. Now discussions like Where to place highway=bus_stop nodes have become irrelevant: the new schema is very clear on this. So I think that intermediate mappers (?) will learn the proposed PT schema faster and will make less errors, than with the old one.

Your proposition contains *eleven* elements/combinations of elements/, such as Simple bus stop where the bus has a segregated service way. It can still be easily shunned as too complicated. Please explain what you did to address the issue in question. 3. How do you intend to scale the level of difficulty? What is aimed at beginners, and what is for intermediate and advanced mappers?

From a mkgmap perspective, I can search for public_transport=platform and treat it as highway=bus_stop, but how do I know that something's a bus stop not a railway platform if e.g. operator and network are unknown and unmapped?

Hi Dave There are (hopefully enough) examples in the proposal.
