The key “police” is not currently on the list of features that import as a polygon in osm2pgsql, when mapped as a closed way.
So renderers and other database users that rely on osm2pgsql will need to add the “police” key to the lua transformations list and reimport the database. This is easy for cartographers that make insividual maps, but it’s a major undertaking for the main OSM servers, which is only done every couple of years. So it will take some time before any objects tagged “police=station” without an “amenity” tag could be rendered on the Standard map layer on OSM. This shouldn’t be a problem for things like warehouses, non-public offices, vehicle impound facilities etc. But it requires patience for police stations. -Joseph On Sun, Mar 17, 2019 at 4:16 AM Mateusz Konieczny <[email protected]> wrote: > > Mar 16, 2019, 3:08 PM by [email protected]: > > On 16.
