Re: [Tagging] admin_level on nodes: wiki vs practice
2014-05-14 4:51 GMT+02:00 Fernando Trebien fernando.treb...@gmail.com: For a long time I believed that the only practical reason for placing capital=yes or state_capital=yes on a node was to help the renderer decide how to render the label; the renderer could then avoid the trouble of handling relations, even though it's not tht hard to handle them, and a good renderer would have to handle them to support multipolygons anyway. It is a misconception to think either you support relations or you don't. The relation concept is very flexible and open, allowing to map all kind of relations between the member objects, which themselves could be other relations etc., this means you'll have to write different code for every type of relation (and often also for different ways of mapping the with the same type of relation, think nested relations for instance). If you support multipolygon relations (which are e.g. supported by osm2pgsql) this doesn't give you automagically support for admin_centre roles as well. I agree that it seems not too hard to support this particular role, but so far it simply isn't there (AFAIK, maybe you can do it with lua?). capital=yes btw. is the older concept, the admin_centre role and even the boundary relation itself (of not the datatype relation per se) are more recent. cheers, Martin ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] capital and state_capital: how are they being used in your country?
... Czech Republic taginfo=capital what do you mean? So it seems that, except for Russia, the most common practice is as described in http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/capital#Notes_on_actual_usage . We should probaby vote on this proposal now and make this the default practice. This makes admin_level unnecessary on any place nodes. It's easy to retag capitals in Brazil, and it would probably be easy in North America and in Russia too. But local apps might not like it very much. In Russia, apps could continue using admin_level for a while and slowly migrate the capital=[number] tag.

Re: [Tagging] capital and state_capital: how are they being used in your country?
Following from Aleksandr Dezhin's Why not use admin_level=* without capital=yes? in that wiki talk page, why not? Any place=city/town with admin_level=2 is a country capital. Any place=city/town/village with admin_level=4 is a state capital (at least in Brazil). This would remove the need for a capital=* tag. Non-capital cities would have admin_level=8. What happens if the place node has a different admin_level than specified by the relation would be... totally application-specific.

Re: [Tagging] capital and state_capital: how are they being used in your country?
Brasília is the only exception which is a capital of two different administrative levels. And both the relations for the federal district [1] and the country [2] correctly express that idea. I know it's not a rule that applies to every country, and precisely because of that it would make even more sense to think about relations rather than node tags to express the idea of a capital generically.

Exacly, so why tag the level number on the node when we have relations and can incude the capitals as role:admin_centre? And then there are no exceptions.

I've checked the first 15 cities in this list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_in_Germany_by_population And it seems that in Germany's city nodes: - the federal capital is tagged with capital=yes+admin_level=2: http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/240109189 - state capitals are tagged with capital=4, some (though far from the top of the list) also have is_capital=state - others have neither capital nor admin_level tags Things I did not understand: - Leipzig has is_capital=county on the node but admin_level=6 on the relation - Nurenberg has capital=5 on the node but admin_level=6 on the relation And some of these relations (though far from the top of the list) are not assigned an admin_centre role, even though the node exists. It seems that German capitals follow the pattern capital=[lowest admin_level of relations in which the city is admin_centre], except Berlin. __ openstreetmap.org/user/AndiG88 wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:AndiG88 ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging -- Fernando Trebien +55 (51) 9962-5409 Nullius in verba. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
