What way would that be? Unless we want each render style author to maintain their own worldwide database of company logos (which would not only be redundant, but also far too much work for most rendering development teams), the logos need to be available either directly in OSM or in an external resource – such as Wikidata – linked from OSM. For what it's worth, I think a logo tag could have it's place. I prefer using Wikidata where possible, but Wikidata has notability guidelines that will probably prevent creating an item for smaller stores that are not part of a major national or international brand. What I particularly like about the proposal is the focus on using Commons, as their machine-readable license templates give us at least a chance at managing the legal issues. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
