[Talk-GB] Scenic or not?

2015-02-13 Thread Dan S
Hi all,

I just saw an announcement that mySociety will be mothballing some of
their old projects. One of them is Scenic or not? - it's a project
to gather a freely available nation-wide dataset of scenicness for
the UK.
http://scenic.mysociety.org/

So, well I never heard about it until now, but now it's shutting down,
or at least going into read-only mode. Why do I mention it?

* It provides open crowdsourced data about scenicness (ODBL licence) -
hundreds of thousands of votes cast. Surely one of you might do
something interesting with it?
* Would you like to run ScenicOrNot yourself? asks the website.
Maybe you would...?

Dan

I’ve not read the whole thread but there was a tagging list
discussion in 2010 which I found linked from

Subject: [Talk-GB] Bus Depots

 

Back in 2008, the recommendation for tagging bus depots, according
to http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Buses#Depots, was to use
amenity=parking, access=private and landuse=industrial.

 

However, I have seen other London depots use myriad other tags such
as amenity=commercial and amenity=bus_station. Are there more
relevant tags to this facility, or should the 2008 recommendation
stand as it is?
