I would really like you to expand on why adding "riser=power_line;tele_communication" would make things difficult to map. Though I think it might be hard to visualize making accidental deletions a worry. Risers seems to be pretty easy to map, but under ground cables might not be quite as easy (since even tunnels are hard). _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
