Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Tagging in the building tasks

2020-01-25 Per discussione Nick Burrett
That's what I would think. It's extra time to go through the dialog boxes to set the building tags. I never bother and instead set the value when setting the address since that can be done automatically. Since the majority of buildings are houses, you could mass tag them all as houses since that

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Dublin street names from Dublin City Council
