[Tagging] Bannered/Special routes (Business, Alternate, etc.) in ref tags

Sometimes bannered routes like business and alternate routes are tagged with, for example, ref=US 1 Business, spelling it out fully, and other times they abbreviate it, e.g. ref=US 1 Alt. Which is considered the best practice? We already abbreviate the US, I, etc., so it's not a stretch to

For the case at hand, it's an n.v (naamloze venootschap). A limited company. Says nothing at all about the area in which the company operates. On Thu, Apr 12, 2018 at 12:08 PM, Volker Schmidt wrote: > NGO is not the correct term. > The Italian social cooperatives are,

Re: [Tagging] Cafe run as outreach project

NGO is not the correct term. The Italian social cooperatives are, normally, small companies. That is much different form NGO [1], I think. In particular they are for-profit businesses. My earlier point was that if you put the operator's name in the "operator" tag, this would, in Italy, normally

Re: [Tagging] Cafe run as outreach project

So I will add social_facility=outreach (and hope no-one thinks it is only accessible for people in an outreach group) operator=Foobar operator:type:ngo for now. In case new/better ideas pop-up, feel free to let me know. m. p.s. @Volker: I totally understand your viewpoint. I was wondering

So what are you going to use/propose ? landcover or man_made ? Curious, because I want to correct my mapping. On Thu, Apr 12, 2018 at 11:01 AM, John Willis wrote: > > >> On Apr 12, 2018, at 4:43 PM, Martin Koppenhoefer >> wrote: >> >> landuses don’t refer

Re: [Tagging] Cafe run as outreach project

Marc, to be clear, if a project clearly advertises it, they indicate they wish it to be known. My point was only to be cautious about adding it without having checked that the project in question wishes this to be known. Unfortunately our society includes all sorts of weird people. I am German

Re: [Tagging] Cafe run as outreach project

This is a tricky issue. I expect not all of them to be happy to publicise that fact. We have here in Italy many businesses or amenities that are run by social cooperatives [1] that employ people with special needs. From the Wikipedia article it seems that similar forms are common in Belgium. In
