Re: [Tagging] Hamlet is always an unincorporated place in OSM?

Here's how it sort of worked in the UK. A city has a cathedral. Or a royal charter. Or is a big town that feels like calling itself a city. A town has a weekly (or more frequent) market. Or used to have a market. No cathedral. A village has one or more churches. Or used to, before they

Re: [Tagging] British term for municipal greenery?

Ummm, why not use existing tagging and add operator=name_of_local_authority? No need to invent a new tag No need to invent new values specifically to indicate it's municipal. -- Paul ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org

Re: [Tagging] British term for municipal greenery?

No need to tag the operator, it's just how it's collectively known here. In fact nobody knows or cares who actually takes care of it, as long as it is kept tidy by people in safety vests leaning on gardening gear and operating loud chainsawlike machines. People feel that using all kinds of

Re: [Tagging] Hamlet is always an unincorporated place in OSM?

Interesting. I'm not sure if this is a bug in Nominatim or a misunderstanding of OSM definitions. Let's see: - Dilermando de Aguiar is a Brazilian municipality with 3308 inhabitants, mapped as an administrative boundary with admin_level=8 with a place=village as its admin_centre node - Sede is a
