iD contains a lot of Americanisms. Until this discussion I had never heard of a platter lift. I am guessing they are what we brits normally call either a button lift, or more usually a poma lift (although that's a trade mark). These are common in France. T-bars are more common in Austria.

And what is the utility of t-bar, because it's a platter with 2 persons, so aerialway:occupancy=2, no ? I can't understand why it is duplicate. It's not good… 2014/1/22 Martin Koppenhoefer <[email protected]> 2014/1/22 [email protected] <[email protected]> I think we can delete aerialway=drag_lift of Openstreetmap's wiki because it's a duplication of platter. Same thing for t-bar, for 2 places platters, we have the tag aerialway:occupancy=2, which is not easily parametrable in iD editor. According to taginfo, aerialway=platter is used much fewer than drag_lift and t-bar is almost at par with platter. The proposal states that this is only to be used for "Platter lift, similar to a t-bar, but with a disc instead of a bar. Single-person only. " http://wiki.osm.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Piste_Maps http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/aerialway#values drag_lift 4 830 platter 1 471 goods 1 217 t-bar 1 206 so NO, DO NOT DELETE the mentioned values from the wiki! cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
