Having just spent 2 months mapping schools I can see the logic of something which seemed a problem previously. The tools do not yet fully follow this style of tagging, but it is the ideal approach. SITE Area amenity=pub Details for the pub are at this level. Within the site ... parking, play areas, buildings and so on can be mapped and tagged, with building=pub and other details. Replace amenity=pub with school, collage, hospital and so on and each area can be properly mapped. Where an amenity is within another larger area such as a shopping mall then the 'amenity' may well be an area within a larger building so having the same tags for amenity and building makes perfect sense. Now we just need the tools to add back in the links between the larger area amenity and it's components? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
