this is correct. NASCAR is a sanctioning body that does not directly own any
race tracks. if we wanted to tag sanctioning bodies it would need to be a
separate tagging scheme. since sanctioning body/track relationships can be
quite fluid, it's a very poor candidate for tagging in OSM.

we already have fairly functional tagging for race circuits. i could
imagine some
tweaks but i don't think we really need this.

Re: [Tagging] Feature request - nascar=*

2017-11-19 Thread Marc Gemis
Can you explain the difference between a F1 pit stall an a Nascar one ?
I don't understand why all those elements have to be placed in the
nascar namespace.
I would expect a more general tag that can also be used for other
organisations of car races

I also noticed that. In fact the example given in the proposal 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/25.45387/-80.40864 is the Homestead-Miami 
Speedway which hosts not just Nascar but a whole range of different events by 
different companies and sponsors,(IndyCar Series, Sports Car Championships see  
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homestead-Miami_Speedway). So the facilities at 
the race track would be used by all of these events and not just for Nascar. 

They should be tagged as parts of the race track and not as the operator of 
only one single event that takes place there.

Isn't nascar a private company not a 'sport'? Similar to the touring circus 
that is Formula1?

Aren't the tracks used by other racing categories?

Hello, subscribers of the tagging mailing list...

I have created a feature proposal in order to more easily map motorsports
tracks, most specifically NASCAR tracks.

A link can be found here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/

Although this is not a formal RFC, I would like some feedback regarding
