Hi all, Another week, another summary. Not a lot of interesting discussions in talk@ this week, but luckily we still have tagg...@...
Greetings Ben * OSM in WolframAlpha WolframAlpha now displays an OSM map when you ask information of a city http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=Brussels * Cable distribution cabinets (tagging@) Originally about the tag for small cabinets that distribute electricity to homes. Evolved in a new discussion about the power=* tags that don't mean in English what their tags suggest: a power station is power=generator, a power substation is power=station and then there's power=substation http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:power=cable_distribution_cabinet * highway=motorway/motorroad implications (tagging@) Question on what these tags should imply (e.g. oneway=yes, bicycle=no...) Usual discussion that these tags mean different things in different countries. * Aerodrome classification (tagging@) Currently all airports, airfields and heliports are just tagged with aeroway=aerodrome and we can an extra tag to discern between international airports and small airstrips. But what should be the basis for this classification? Some want to use numbers like the amount of air movements, other want a more subjective approach. And then there's the question of which tag to use (aeroway=airstrip, aeroway=small, importance=3...) Discussion also over here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Airports#What_about_small_airstrips_that_shouldn.27t_be_given_the_same_prominence_on_the_map_as_major_airports.3F * Tagging proposals (tagging@) * Fitness trails (in Flanders known as "Fit-o-meter") http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:route=fitness_trail _______________________________________________ Talk-be mailing list Talk-be@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-be
