More informative than simply indicating it is still in use. __John ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
Re: [Tagging] tagging cannons
BTW is there a tag for cannon that still go BANG now and then; historic=cannon+bang=yes? I guess fixed artillery hasn't much room in the defense of today, so it's still a historic thing.

Disused=yes for non functional cannons and disused=no for functional ones sounds good to me. Janko ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] tagging cannons
Follow up. If tagging a small area that has, say, 8 cannons, but not wanting to map them individually. What is the best tag to use to indicate number of cannons there? capacity=* doesn't seem right. Is there something like count=*?
