Hi folks, I'm currently re-drawing the coastline along SW Donegal which was in need of some TLC since the Bing imagery came along. I've about 50KM done and possibly another 50 or more to do and I plan then to continue mapping townlands from the coastline inwards
Along the way I'm including any small sea-rocks I encounter. Usually I tag these as "natural=coastline", "admin_level=5" and "boundary=administrative" (not sure where I got these tags, probably just copied them from someone else). I noticed some rendering irregularities for some rocks I mapped recently and it's only now I see why... I hadn't included these rocks in any County or Province relations Which has me wondering... What boundary relations, if any, should a sea-rock fall under? So far, and for most counties with coastline there appears to be the following boundary inclusions for normal coastline: + Ireland: http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/305649975 + Ulster: http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/278664 + County Donegal: http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/283732 + County Donegal: http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/4085165 (seems to be 2 for each county?) Should a sea-rock tagged as coastline be included in all the above? Then there's the newer boundaries currently being worked on... townlands and parishes (and eventually baronies and ED's) What is the consensus here? Should a sea-rock be included in the townland and then the parish it would appear to be sitting of from? Some larger rocks are actually marked with ARP data on the TCD sheets... not necessarily as a townland but certainly recognised all the same Cheers, C _______________________________________________ Talk-ie mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie
