Thank you Clifford,
I find you proposal quite useful and relevant.
There are a couple of things that are not totally clear to me:
* in general, might these tags apply also to areas, rather than only ways?
* I am a bit confused by /accessible_van/. Does it refer to vans
instead of cars? In
Dear all,
I have proposed a new feature - U-turn - to mark whether U-turning is legally
allowed on the highway by introducing a new key u_turn = yes / no to be
applied on highway=* .
This is used for routing purpose, such that when U-turn is allowed, the router
can instruct the driver to

Hi Graeme,
Thanks for your input. The guidelines suggest keeping tag names as short as
possible and underscored compound words add complexity.
If this fell under the camouflage principle of "crypsis" I'd definitely use
something like "blends_with" but I think "mimics" is well-understood and
I've updated the proposal to incorporate Paul Allen's suggestion that the
practice of using tower:construction=concealed be deprecated when a mast or
tower is tagged with mimics=*.

I quite like "disguised_as"
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the quick feedback.

I've seen the same with the Australia list.
Here, "reply" go to the list; while on AU, "reply" only goes to that
person, while "Reply All" goes to them & the list?
Thanks

I've emailed the list with a Request For Comments on a key for
communication masts and towers: mimics.
Thanks, Eric

Since 1992 cellphone masts and towers have been disguised as trees, cacti,
and other features of the natural and built world. The suggested practice
for tagging this infrastructure is to use man_made=tower or man_made=mast
with tower:type=communication in combination with
Since there has been no new discussion and I've modified the proposal to
accommodate concerns on the original Draft, I'm opening the proposal up for
voting. Please go to
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/access_aisle to vote
on the proposal.
Thanks in advance,
Clifford
