... sorry to double post but it appears I didn't send this to the list :-) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dave G <[email protected]> Date: 2009/8/2 Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] RFC - Proposal : mountain and wilderness shelter buildings To: sylvain letuffe <[email protected]>
Sylvain I agree with your proposal as the current tags are unsuitable for the hut & shelter system in New Zealand I would suggest the following as well however: Lean_to: 1. the fireplace tag be option as many of NZ Lean_to have fireplaces 2. option mattresses tag (as above) 3. optional sleeping_bench tag (as above) An additional Propsed_Feature/"rock_bivvy" Details: similar to cave but generally a naturally not very deep a naturally occurring rock overhang, or formed under a large isolated rock, often modified with the addition of dry rock walls to further enclose them from the weather There are many of these in NZ which provide excellent all weather shelter in remote areas, in the absence of huts. They vary in size and comfort and some have fireplace, water supplies, toilets, sleeping benches and/or mattresses so these tags would need to be optional See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqPOGxadDXc http://www.bugbitten.com/photos/Australia/Oceania/HRNZ/Mt_Arthur_Tablelands/108054-5054-3789374.html http://www.flickr.com/photos/dosgringosenparaiso/3337385810/ http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM58N_Scotts_Rock_Bivvy cheers.......dave 2009/8/2 sylvain letuffe <[email protected]> Hi, > > I'd like to propose this set of tags : > > > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/wilderness_mountain_buildings > (composed of different proposal) to classify buildings open to the public > in > isolated areas. > > It tries to officialise the rather well used alpine_hut and tries to clear > distinction between different type of amenity=shelter wich looks a > bit "vague" to me as there are dozen of different shelters out there: > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelter > > > -- > sly > sylvain letuffe > > _______________________________________________ > talk mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk >
