The main thing is that people often refer to "Talstation" and
"Bergstation" but this information is not machine-readeable but
mostly encoded in the names of the stations. My goal ist to make this
machine-readeable because it almost all cases people can refer to it
even if they do not know the station's name. It's obvious what's
meant in almost every case what I mean when I say "Bergstation
Mutteralmbahn" [1] even if the station's name doesn't say so [2]. So
let's put this into machine-readeable tags to enable applications to
solve a problem not for specialists but for the general map purpose
we're building.
In my opinion we did have the right discussion and have a very good
proposed definition with easy values that people with a basic
understanding of english can understand. Do you agree?
Yes, I agree, provided the values are "top/bottom" or "upper/lower"
and not "head/base". Even "mountain/valley" could be problematic as it
depends on the geography and not simply on the geometry (an
end-station half-way up the mountain, what is that?). The distinction
is purely about the altitude of the end-station relative to the other,
not about whether it is surrounded by shops or rocks.
This will enable a user to select all top-stations for example, or to
label the stations on a given cableway appropriately.
Well then I will put this into the wiki, ok? :-)
