There has to be room for both. Sometimes the signposts "lie" in the interests of clarity for navigation by road users. There is also the "destination" tag set which covers the ref "as signposted", allowing the ref=* to reflect the actual administrative ID. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:destination Colin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
