Hi all, I think this should be discussed here (centrally) : https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:WikiProject_Emergency_Cleanup#amenity.3D.2A_vs._emergency.3D.2A Generally I don't understand why the parameters can't be "mixed" (a police station is a police station, whether for emergency or

Well said, I agree wholeheartedly. A local, anecdotal view is in itself not enough to produce a data model that works for everyone. On 2018-09-22 14:22, Tobias Zwick wrote: > Tagging an implicit speed limit explicitly for example in town with > maxspeed=50 is straightforward enough for Germany.

Re: [Tagging] maxspeed:type vs source:maxspeed // StreetComplete

Tagging an implicit speed limit explicitly for example in town with maxspeed=50 is straightforward enough for Germany. It seems natural that no specialist knowledge is required for that kind of thing. For a German. But let's look at some other countries for the default urban speed limit. Spain

Edi & change status, I would say. Seems a pretty clear case, just maybe not something many mappers or users are very concerned with. But that's not a problem as long as there is a clear definition, solid data and a steady group of mappers/users. I would say, just do it and document it. Op zo 23

[Tagging] JOSM error for a bus lane conditional

Hi, There is a past entry of lanes:bus:conditional=1 @ (Mo-Fr 06:00-10:00,15:00-19:00) That JOSM says is incorrect. There is a declared 2 lanes there on the way. What is wrong with that tagging? One lane for buses between 6 to 10 and 15 to 19 hundred hours.

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - Voting - Toll Gantry

A toll_bridge [1] is a bridge for which you have to pay to pass, highway=toll_bridge should be a highway that is a toll-bridge, not a mechanical structure that is installed above a road to check the passing traffic. This would be a gantry [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gantry_(road_sign) [1]

Re: [Tagging] Topographic Prominence for Peaks

For most peaks, it's only necessary to know the elevation of the nearby saddles and peaks to find the prominence. For example, walk to the top of the hill and record the elevation. Look around and find any taller nearby peaks. If there is only 1 taller hill, walk down the ridge line to the lowest

In OSM at present there are some twenty gantries for toll collection tagged as highway=toll_bridge. They should be retagged as gantries with equipment for toll collection or whatever their purpose is. The proposed highway=toll_gantry is one possibility. It woud prefer something like highway=gantry
