Hi Warin,

Both of those examples were previously build:part=elevator. Its probably
worth asking why they changed them to building:levels=elevator. That seems
to be a more appropriate tagging.


building:part should be a 'part' of a building .. not the entire building .. they are both tagged with building=yes.

One example

https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/996164524/history

has no past history .. so no previous key of building:part.


I'd have no problem with building=elevator_shell, but they are building=yes. I am happy to change that too, if acceptable?

I have been using building=silo with man_made=silo (key building for rendering the area .. man_made just does a symbol).



Cheers - Phil

Subject: [talk-au] Changing building levels elevator to description elevator
shell

Hi

There are ~260 of closed ways with the tag 'building:levels=elevator'.

This tag should have numbers as the value not text, the number being the
number of levels.

See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building:levels.


These object all are associated with railway stations around Sydney and
appear to have been added by members of TfNSW team. I have left a message on
one of their members changeset but have had no reply.

There are no other uses of this tag elsewhere in the world.


My thoughts are to change the tag to 'description=elevator shell' as these
look to be the walls around the outside of the moving elevator that is
presently mapped as a node in these cases.


Examples

Way 993829900 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/993829900

Way 996164524 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/996164524


Any thoughts?
