Re: [Tagging] How to tag a public works facility ?
2014-02-22 13:49 GMT+01:00 Erik Johansson erjo...@gmail.com: So I guess the final say is how this is handled by the tools that use the . If they can handle stuff like this with ease, then I see no reason to duplicate a way just to add a fence, or making it over complicated by letting two ways share nodes or a multipolygon from multipleways.. I see this not as a case for tools to handle something, but as a question how to model in a clear way. If you now add height=2m to this object, you might still be able to say, this is for the fence by interpreting it, but adding other tags like wikipedia or name it will become often unclear to which object the attributes / tags belong, if several different objects are represented in the same osm object. If we had a distinct area datatype this would be more obvious (and less a problem therefore, because people would be forced to separate objects). E.g. if your fence were a wall, it would be impossible to tell whether this was a thick wall (mapped as an area) or if the wall was intended as a linear feature. cheers, Martin ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

2014-02-19 22:18 GMT+01:00 sabas88 saba...@gmail.com: Why use landuse=industrial? Because it's rendered? I don't advocate it to be used exclusively, but it fits the current definition (production and/or storage). cheers, Martin ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
Re: [Tagging] How to tag a public works facility ?
Hi - In the past I've seen people use landuse=depot http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:landuse%3Ddepot Dan 2014-02-19 9:06 GMT+00:00 Pieren pier...@gmail.com: It's a small area with several buildings where the municipality is storing vehicles and the maintenance and repair services. Someone suggests to use amenity=public_building but it's deprecated now in the wiki... building=public doesn't fit well here because it's an area and is not open to the public. Something new like amenity=public_works ?

Re: [Tagging] How to tag a public works facility ?
For what it is worth, in the area I live in such facilities seem to be called corporate yards. Since industrial=depot seems to have only one use at present and does not fit exactly. At least it does not fit in my mind. Perhaps it could be tagged as landuse=industrial, industrial=corporate_yard with operator=City of and maybe name=XXX Corporate Yard -Tod On Feb 19, 2014, at 3:37 AM, SomeoneElse wrote: Pieren wrote: It's a small area with several buildings where the municipality is storing vehicles and the maintenance and repair services.

It's also keeping various equipments required by municipalities (could be street furnitures, salting of roads, plants (winter), compost, etc). Btw, use simply depot=* instead of depot:type=*. I don't understand this recent trend to add a :type suffix in subtags. It was not the case in the past (e.g. building=*, wood=*, traffic_signals=*, etc, etc, etc) Pieren ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

It was not the case in the past (e.g. building=*, wood=*, traffic_signals=*, etc, etc, etc) Simply because there's an overlap between the common use of type=container (as in waste container) and the type=container of the depot proposal (as in shipping container). IMO I had to clarify the tag...
