Hi all, I've been looking at the GNIS data and it's quite a mess.
As a step towards cleaning up the mess, I'd like to discuss removing some extranious gnis tags in the editors (just as we do with TIGER and other tags). I would like to suggest that the editors remove the following tags entirely: gnis:ST_num gnis:ST_alpha gnis:feature_type gnis:created gnis:state_id gnis:county_id gnis:county_name gnis:feature_type gnis:import_uuid gnis:reviewed gnis:edited gnis:description gnis:County gnis:Class gnis:County_num In addition, I suggest that we remove two other tags conditionally. I suggest we remove the "ele" tag unless the tag natural=peak is present and that we remove "source" if the value for that tag is "USGS Geonames" (which is just GNIS). I'd like to open a discussion about these tags, or other tags people suggest removing from gnis data. - Serge _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
