History:
In the very early years of OSM, there were three types of features
where planes could land: aeroway=airport for airports,
aeroway=airfield for undeveloped airstrips, and aeroway=aerodrome for
general aviation sites, if I understand the history correctly. These
were rendered differently back in 2008, it appears, based on the old
discussion in the talk pages.
However, at some point all of the aeroway=airport and aeroway=airfield
features were edited (I don't know if it was done over a few months or
all at once) to aeroway=aerodrome, which was defined to mean any place
where aviation operations regularly take place, except for military
airports, which are tagged miltary=airfield.
I've also heard that, but what I've never been able to find is the
object history that explains exactly what happened when.
Does anyone know of any features that were originally "aeroway=airport"
or "aeroway=airfield" or similar and got retagged?
Best Regards,
Andy
