[Tagging] dinosaur park
Hello, today I searched for dinosaur parks in my surrounding. These parks seems to have a current tagging like leisure=park or leisure=recreation_ground name=Dinopark X also dinosaur musuems also just seem to have tourism=museum and a name tag. So its impossible to query them without regexp. Do you think a new tag like park=dinosaur or leisure=dinosaur_park is a good idea? Or maybe a more general tagging scheme like subject=dinosaur could be connected to tourism=museum or leisure=park. And its a general container for other needs. What is your meaning?

Re: [Tagging] dinosaur park
When you look at the discussion page for museum [1], you might notice that first there was subject, but most museum themes are now mapped with museum=xxx Anyway, I would not introduce a new toplevel tag for this, but add key-value pairs to further specify museum. I'm not sure about leisure=park or recreation_ground. The wiki page [2] on leisure=recreation_ground, says that it might be better to replace it with landuse=recreation_ground. The description of that [3] is not really appropriate for your purpose IMHO. Maybe just tourism=attraction ? regards m [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:tourism%3Dmuseum [2] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag%3Aleisure%3Drecreation_ground [3] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:landuse%3Drecreation_ground On Sat, Dec 27, 2014 at 1:02 PM, Johannes jotpe@gmail.com wrote: Hello, today I searched for dinosaur parks in my surrounding.

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - leisure=fitness_centre
From the German Forum... just wanted to mention this here, too. http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=29190 What's wrong with sport=fitness and leisure=sports_centre? Persoanlly I think it would result in all kind of facilities being tagged like this, even though it's not the primary purpose. For example someone posted a User Diary entry about rowing clubs in Denmark and that some have a fitness centre. I don't know about you, but that's not exacly for I'm looking for when searching for one. __ openstreetmap.org/user/AndiG88 wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:AndiG88 ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
[Tagging] Defining genre for public bookcases
Hello, Many public bookcases are small enough (20-30 books) that hey can have an implicit genre, for example most books are science-fiction novels, cookbooks, etc. If you are looking for a particular genre, this information can be particularly helpful on a public bookcase map (so you know which public bookcase to visit). There does not seem to have a generic genre tag in OSM. Should it be mapped like proposed in amenity=theathre? theatre:genre=drama theatre:genre=opera ... http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dtheatre http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity=theatre This could give: literature:genre=science-fiction literature:genre=mystery literature:genre=cookbook literature:genre=comedy … What do you think?

[Tagging] key:support, man_made=surveillance
hi, since the pipeline proposal was approved, I'm currently creating sub-pages for most tags used in the proposal. I took the liberty to create a page for support=* [1], as discussed earlier. two ideas: - support=* could also be useful for man_made=surveillance. the example picture in [2] prominently features a pole. - since surveillance cameras are often mounted on ceilings, I introduced support=ceiling. let me know if this is acceptable or requires a proposal. cu [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:support [2] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dsurveillance ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
Re: [Tagging] key:support, man_made=surveillance
I suggest to focus on what is actually approved. Like location=*, usage=* or substation=*, main proposal features like pipeline should be described on a dedicated key page Those feature key pages will use some of these tags (like support=*) and give the values which correspond to. If man_made=surveillance want to use support=* key, values should be given on man_made=surveillance page. Furthermore, a dedicated support=* key page can be created to explain how this tag is used and link to pipeline or surveillance page to have an idea of values in details. Such a structure will help a lot QA and tools maintainers to define more precisely their list of accepted values for each main feature (pipeline or surveillance for instance).

[Tagging] shop=provisions (Import Norway)
Found this tag when cleaning up shop=*. I guess you can buy food and/or equipment there? Looks like it's all from a import from Norway for tourist huts. * http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue/N50_import_%28Norway%29 * http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/6HN So what's the best way to deal with this now? Just document it? Are there already similar tags? __ openstreetmap.org/user/AndiG88 wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:AndiG88 ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
[Tagging] Replying to raw digests considered harmful
Could you please consider either subscribing to the nondigested version of the mailing list https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging or use procmail to split each digest into it's constituent messages http://pm-doc.sourceforge.net/doc/#splitting_digest? Replying to the emails containing the digested mbox breaks threading by not preserving the In-Reply-To or Subject headers and makes everyone else's mailboxes harder to manage (particularly for folks filtering by thread; most folks are likely to filter anything with digest in the subject straight to trash or mute it without reading).

I heard this argument from an pipeline expert, noting that marker surveyed with consumer GPS are (for their standards) way off their real location. maybe this is a non-issue after all, if consensus is that consumer GPS accuracy is sufficient enough. cu ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
