Re: [Tagging] key:destination Signpost question

the tag is used directly (e.g. destination=Exampletown) on the ways leading away from a bifurcation, and/or in the form of destination:lanes (e.g. destination:lanes=Exampletown| Foobarcity) on the way leading towards the bifurcation. Thanks for this explication! I was always in doubt where

Hi, I would like to propose a new tag for Ablution (ritual purification). Wikipedia says that that there's Ablution in Islam, Christianity and Judaism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ablution and worship sites usually have an area set aside for this. Islam:

That is an excellent question. This arch is quite large but there are many other similar structures in villages all over Thailand. I have seen many of them but have never tagged any. There is a barrier=archway used twice in Taginfo but the ones I've seen are not barriers in the usual sense of that

FWIW, I traveled extensively in New Zealand a few years ago and there an ablution block (or ablution area) is a place in a campground where one washes things — dishes, clothing, etc. That definition of ablution is also a sort of purification, I reckon. Cheers Dave On Sat, Aug 30, 2014 at 2:46

We are supporting `smoothness` in iD. Now as of a month ago, we display friendlier (and translatable) text descriptions for these kinds of dropdown fields. (e.g. sac_scale, track type, trail_visibility, etc) When I added these last month, I did borrow heavily from the descriptions on the

I also agree with Mateusz. I would like to see use of the smoothness tag become more universal so building it into a JOSM preset sounds like a good idea. However, as others have said, the topic has had much discussion but little agreement on exactly how to determine the value. A highway that has
