Re: [Tagging] RFC: intelligence facility

Are they under the military or under the civilian government?

How does OSM separate out other government/military departments? Use the 
same method for these.

Why does an 'Intelligence facility' require different tagging?

The ones I can think of in the UK with locations in the public domain are
GCHQ, MI5, MI6 and part of RAF Fylingdales.

I'm not convinced there's any point marking embassies as such.  They all
have at least one intelligence officer (even
if he/she wears other hats too) that tagging the building as an embassy is
sufficient.  Tagging an embassy as also
being an intelligence facility seems redundant.

Re: [Tagging] RFC: intelligence facility

2018-04-10 Thread Martin Koppenhoefer
I admit there is a less serious component in this proposal, in that every
embassy, potentially, eventually, has to do with intelligence, and
obviously, secret installations are not known, unless you know about them,
usually for professional reasons, in which case you would put yourself
under serious risk, unless you are disclosing information about the
"others" (and as long as you don't know for sure that they know that you
know, you will not tell anybody anyway).

But there is also a completely serious part: many installations are known.
You can read about them in the newspaper. There are already many of these
sites mapped in OSM, although they do not use specific or uniform tagging.
I am primarily aiming at mapping these known sites.

Have a look here for one of the most prominent examples:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/186025617
names in 7 languages, but landuse=government is the only tag that describes
the feature, really?

[Tagging] Feature Proposal - Voting - hail and ride

2018-04-10 Thread Michael Tsang
Dear all,

The proposed feature "hail and ride" is open for voting:

Quoted from Wikipedia:
Hail and ride is boarding or alighting a mode of public transport by 
signalling the driver or conductor that one wishes to board or alight, rather 
than the more conventional system of using a designated stop.
For the way segment to be tagged hail_and_ride, the passenger must be able to 
hail and ride anywhere along the segment, or alighting anywhere on the segment 
by telling the driver, not limited to places where signs exist. This role is 
not for services which only allows passengers to board/alight at designated 
places where the vehicle does not stop if no request is made.

Michael Tsang

sure. I used it to tag the school where I work, also.

I think ISCED is a nice standard, but, as it is not used by common people,
it is not very useful. If you are moving from a town to other, It is more
likely for you to look for schools in the official school department

[Tagging] RFC: intelligence facility

2018-04-10 Thread Martin Koppenhoefer
I have worked on my proposal for tagging intelligence facilities and am
asking for your comments.

The key was changed from amenity to man_made because this allows for adding
the tag to amenity=embassy sites. On the other hand, this move makes it
incompatible with other man_made objects like antennas etc. (it would be a
problem only in case it is a single isolated object without any area
around), so I have added also a property: intelligence_facility=yes.

Just in case you are wondering, you don't have to wait for voting, you can
use the tags right now.

IMHO it is neither. I would see those flowerbeds that are part of a road or 
square as landuse=highway. Those in a park are part of the park landuse 
(implied by leisure=park), those in private gardens are residential landuse. 
Those in flower shows are part of the show landuse.
For a single flowerbed I would use something like man_made=flowerbed
If you want to tag the flowers you could add a landcover object for the flowers 
(but this wouldn’t be the same as the flowerbed object), or probably better, 
invent a property for the flowerbed object which gives information about the 
flowers in it.

A huge exhibition area with flowers would IMHO not be well represented by the 
word flowerbed (and it would likely consist of several flower areas)

in the public transport tag tradition you could even argue for 
public_transport=station so that it requires additionally bus=yes in order to 
make sense ;-)

I don’t see a point in moving things around between different tags, especially 
if the new way doesn’t add information and is less concise.

I agree there might be facilities where it isn’t clear whether they are bus 
stations or a big bus stop, but this doesn’t mean there isn’t a difference in 
general (the fact natural language uses different words is a strong indication 
that there is indeed a difference). Your tagging proposal doesn’t help more to 
resolve the edge cases than does the current tagging.

I would be willing to argue that there is a place for both keys actually.

The man_made one to describe the physical thing.
The amenity one to describe that this is a publicly accessible amenity..

The amenity key implies the man_made key, but not the other way around.

Re: [Tagging] Unclear meaning of amenity=bus_station

2018-04-10 Thread Wiklund Johan
Yes Martin, same thing – but these are the big obvious ones. These are easy to 
say “that’s a bus station”, but what I’m trying to get at is that when you 
scale them down in size there is no clear line to be drawn when a bus station 
turns into a regular bus stop. When should the big icon become a small icon?

For example Lysaker: 
http://www.banenor.no/contentassets/3902666056fd47deb0e404589dda391f/oversikt-lysaker-520.jpg.
 The two split roads are each lined with multiple bus stops. It’s a major bus 
stop where almost all traffic to and from Oslo will stop, It has 7 waiting 
positions labeled A-G. It’s also combined with an important train station. Its 
half way between a street stop and a bus terminal. This is similar to what 
Johnparis mentions 
(http://artheme.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/8-L15Est-FortAubervilliers-2.jpg).

In the next mail you say “I would expect an area” and that’s what I’m thinking 
too in terms of defining a difference between an on-street-stop and a separate 
dedicated bus area – the size and importance is a different thing and I feel we 
are trying to jam multiple concepts into one un-unifiable terminology.

I’m going to be bold and say remove amenity=bus_station and replace it with 
landuse=public_transport + public_transport=bus_station (and subsequently 
public_transport=train and so on). “Regular” bus stops “in the wild” would then 
just be relations with public=transport=platform as the only area-object.

I’ll have to mention that I am by no means an expert on the OSM public 
transport scheme (any of them), mostly because pt is my daytime job and I can’t 
be bothered doing it in my free time as well ☺.

I think there is no realistic distinction to be made between a bus station and 
a "regular" bus stop. Mainly because each bus stop is different from the next. 
One could argue that any bus stop where more than one waiting area is a bus 
station, or if it has some kind of amenity tied to it like a waiting room or 
toilets. But any stop can have an amenity, and the most rural and amenity-free 
stop can support several buses and have multiple waiting areas.

Re: [Tagging] Still RFC — Drop stop positions and platforms

2018-04-10 Thread Yves

platform by the side of a road when they spot one, and

bus_stop also.

Don't be too hasty.

There may be others who disagree.

I see no meaningful difference between amenity=carpet_hanger and
man_made=carpet_hanger so I changed proposal to man_made=carpet_hanger

man_made would be a more specific key and avoids excluding ones that
are not for the community, e.g. a commercial enterprise.

man_made "for identifying man-made/(artificial)/  structures added to
the landscape" amenity "an assortment of community facilities"

carpet hanger (also carpet stand or carpet rack) is a construction

Currently there is no documented tagging scheme for this feature. At
this moment amenity=beater is typically used, but it seems poor tag
name, not matching English name for this feature.
