Hi OSMers,
I'm trying to understand the placename classifications in Istanbul and how
those relate to OSM tags, and hoping someone can help. In Istanbul there
are ilçe (districts) and mahalle (neighborhoods). But then there are also
semtler - what is the difference between mahalle and semtler?
Hi Jeff,
I've been mapping a lot in Turkey but can only tell for sure that
* il = province (admin_level=4)
* ilçe = town = district = district center (admin_level=6)
* köy = village (admin_level=8)
Concerning suburb/neighborhood (mahalle/semt) I'm still unsure and up to
now
didn't get ANY
