http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/3302441 Ah, I remember that one :-) - Hi folks > as the value "radio telescope" does not look to be official yet .. would a > value of "tower" suit - and edit the names to inculse a prefix of "radio > telescope" followed by the present name be an aproach that would see these > things actually apear on the maps? no. names are as documented for the ASKAP dishes. if we don't *use* the correct tag, what justification do we have for making the renderers display it? it's an observatorry, so we should tag it as such. > So it looks to me as if a value of "tower" would be best .. then add a > prefix to the name and how would you tag the MWA arrays of dipoles? a 'tower' that's only 40cm high would be the same as Spinal tap 'stonehenge'... (which I haven't yet tagged as I'm trying to find the exact positions of the arrays) http://www.mwatelescope.org/ Andrew </rant> _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
