Re: [Tagging] Public Transport Timetables Proposal RFC

No : bus relations are broken because of the way part, not because of the node part. And detailed timetables will be associated with the nodes. Breaking a bus relation by cutting a street way in half does not implies that the osm timetable breaks too. I do not see why timetables are hard to

Re: [Tagging] tagging for an office of the local representative to parliament

Hmmm.  Reaching back to my bachelor's degree in political science, Parliament is also a government body, the legislative branch of the government, so even a member of the opposition is part of "government" in its broadest sense.  I would tag it office=government, government=parliamentarian or

Re: [Tagging] visa offices tags

Definitely not an embassy, and not a consulate, either!  More like a specialized travel agency that focuses only on visa applications. On 11/3/2018 6:22 AM, Warin wrote: > Hi, > > Node: Visalink Germany (4362535595) is tagged as an embassy. > > It is a commercial firm that arranges applications

[Tagging] visa offices tags

Hi, Node: Visalink Germany (4362535595) is tagged as an embassy. It is a commercial firm that arranges applications to the German Embassy/Consulate for a visa, see https://www.visa-germany.co.za/ I think tags could be office=visa, country=DE, website=https://www.visa-germany.co.za/ but

I'm siding with the idea of linking to an external data-base, as maintaining this in OSM is going to be a nightmare :-( On Sat, 3 Nov 2018 at 08:45, Joseph Eisenberg wrote: > Sure! But how many GTFS feeds are there in the whole world, compared to > the number of towns with public transit? > >

[Tagging] tagging for an office of the local representative to parliament

Hi, What tags to use for a local representative to parliament (or any other form of government)? I came across one that was tagged amenity=embassy .. which is not right. But what to use? I have, for the moment, tagged it as office=politician... is there something better?

Re: [Tagging] How to tag named group of named water areas?

I prefer to have common tags on the relation. That said, in JOSM you can select the relation members and then easily add, update or delete a tag from all members of the relation. Cheers! > On Nov 2, 2018, at 4:00 PM, Dave Swarthout wrote: > > Of course. The Trans Alaska Pipeline is as good

Re: [Tagging] How to tag named group of named water areas?

Of course. The Trans Alaska Pipeline is as good an example as any. It is a man_made oil pipeline that stretches 1300 km across the entire state of Alaska. The relation contains 280 members. The reason there are so many members is because the pipeline way has been split into many individual pieces,

“In cities that publish their GTFS timetables under free licenses which are kept current I don't see the point in duplicating this into OSM” Sure! But how many GTFS feeds are there in the whole world, compared to the number of towns with public transit? I’m guessing that in Europe perhaps the

Anyway, i'm wondering why tram tracks that are embedded in a street are mapped with separate ways instead of reusing the street way? Separating them seems topologically wrong. For example at this pedestrian crossing [1] one doesn't first cross tram tracks, then the street and then again tram
