Re: [Tagging] Tagging private property

2015-01-02 Thread Megha Shrestha
Thanks for the suggestion. I think I got the answer. The unused land is the
land scheduled for construction purpose. Is this suitable to use landuse =
residential for such property??

 Landuse=residential ?



 +1, but it wouldn't have connotations about the structure (one plot or
 several plots or only part of a plot), only on the type of landuse.



 Normally a village/town/city is marked this way.



 -1, villages, towns and cities are marked with place=village/town/city,
 not with landuse. The key landuse is for the use of land.


  Also how can you tag a private property which is unused?


 it's hard to say what unused is intended to mean here, for residential
 land with no residents, one might think that it is unused (as residential
 land), but could still be used in different ways, e.g. as a meadow or
 garden, to store stuff etc. For residential land with no constructions on
 it, we typically use either landuse=green_field (land scheduled for
 construction but no construction yet started) or brown_field (land with
 former use, potentially contaminated, potentially old buildings on it).
 Please note that the latter 2 tags don't fit well into the landuse scheme,
 as they are also about scheduled constructions and legally possible
 constructions, while the landuse key normally indicated the actual current
 landuse for the land it is tagged on.

 cheers,
 Martin

 then the landuse is either brownfield (there were buildings before),
 greenfield (never had buildings) or construction (when construction is
 going on).
 see the wiki page on landuse [1]

Do we tag the whole area as owner =* ???

 Is it private as in restricted access or is it private as in owned by
 some individual?

 In the first case I would use access=private on area, in the second I
 would not tag it as
 it is not so important and this data is hard to maintain (
 BTW, proper tag for this situation would be owner=*).

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - (brickkiln)

2014-10-26 Thread Megha Shrestha
We collected the list of the brick kilns from Brick kiln association for
Kathmandu Valley and even mapped the kilns from the satellite image as they
are distinct features. We went to the field where the brick kilns are
located, asked the authorized person for the information and permission to
upload the data in openstreetmap. While uploading the data to the
openstreetmap the necessary tags were not available, which is the reason
for proposing the additional tags.

 By field survey what do you mean?

 You can obviously collect data from what you can see, from signs.

 But my concern is much of this information could be seen as commercially
 sensitive, where does this information come from?
 Have you the necessary permissions to use that information?
 Was the person giving it authorised to do so?
 Did the person giving it understand how you intend to use the
 information?

 Thank you for the suggestion. These are the details that are already
 available to us and I think they can be huge help if made open which is the
 reason for me to suggest this tag. I have gone through your suggestions and
 will make the required edits. Use of existing tag can be a help. I will add
 the additional information you said will be relevant to the proposal page.
 There is no such community that keeps these data updated but we are the
 representatives of OSM in Nepal and we are trying to get data updated
 regularly in OSM and this is also a part of our project.



 As you are probably going to import data into OSM you should be aware that
 there are guidelines which you are required to follow, which contain
 besides other things the requirement of writing to the import mailing list
 and documenting everything in the wiki:

relevant especially in the environment aspect and people should have access
to these data as I found that brick kilns are not much mapped in OSM. About
the operating season and the market they are quite stable in case of Nepal
for other countries I do not have much idea. I think landownership can be
added as a tag as brick kiln are mapped as an area.

I hope my explanation works and I will make edits to the page.

 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/brickkiln




 I have seen on your proposal page that you are aware of the introduced
 man_made=kiln
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dkiln

 My suggestion is to use this established tagging scheme. If the only
 problem you see is that there are no size connotations on a node, then
 please use that tag on an area. There is also a suggestion to add
 product=bricks on the kiln page, so rather then proposing a new tag
 brickkiln you could use
 man_made=kiln
 and
 product=bricks

 You are also proposing a long list of additional tags, some of which are
 very detailed and I am not sure if these details are available to anyone
 besides the operator of the kiln (but that's not a problem, time will show
 which tags get adopted by the mappers and which aren't). If you are
 interesting in evaluating these tags I'd propose you add a list of possible
 values to these tags.

 In particular:

 firing
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:firingaction=editredlink=1
 =* Type of firing used. eg: continuous


 what are the other firing types?


  chimney
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:chimneyaction=editredlink=1
 =yes/no To denote the existence of the chimney  chimney
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:chimneyaction=editredlink=1
 :number
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:numberaction=editredlink=1
 =* Number of the chimney in the brick kiln area


 maybe chimney:amount would be easier to understand? or chimney_count
 (similar to step_count for steps)?


  chimney
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:chimneyaction=editredlink=1
 :height http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:height=height in meters 
 Height
 of the top of the chimney from ground-level in meters. (like Tag:man
 made=tower http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dtower)
 chimney
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:chimneyaction=editredlink=1
 :category
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:categoryaction=editredlink=1
 =* Type of chimney existing in the brick kiln area


 My suggestion would be to map the chimneys individually with their own
 objects. You could then omit the related chimney tags on the kiln area and
 use simple and well established general tags like height on the
 individual chimney. Also the chimney number would be mapped implicitly by
 mapping the single chimneys.


  fuel http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:fuel=* Fuel used to heat
 the kiln  quantity_fuel
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:quantity_fuelaction=editredlink=1
 =* Quantity of the fuel required


 required for what? In what time? In what unit should it be entered (if at
 all)? Maybe this is a detail that is hard to get.


  moulding_process
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:moulding_processaction=editredlink=1
 =* The moulding process used to produce bricks


 what are the possibilities/suggested values?



  drying_system
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:drying_systemaction=editredlink=1
 =* Drying system used to dry the bricks


 what are the possibilities/suggested values?


  material http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:material=* Type of
 material used to produce bricks

 if this refers to the bricks and not to the kiln, the tag should be
 different, e.g. brick:material or brick:type

 what are the possibilities/suggested values?


  production
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:productionaction=editredlink=1
 =* Actual production of the brick kiln


 what does this mean? Whether the kiln is active? The type of bricks it
 produces?


  production_capacity
