Re: [OSM-talk] newbie question related to ele (elevation)
Thanks Tom. That explains it. On Mon, Jun 1, 2009 at 12:42 AM, Tom Hughes t...@compton.nu wrote: Madhav Vodnala wrote: There use to be ele tag for nodes. I exported a small area into an OSM file today and I do not see ele tag anymore. Is that removed?. Presumably because nobody felt like tagging any of the nodes in the area you downloaded with that tag. There are no restrictions on what tags you can add so it's entirely up to you whether you add an ele tag to something. I would only expect to see it on things like mountain peaks or other objects where the elevation is of some specific interest, so in most areas you download you probably won't see any.
