You seem to be determined to force the existing tagging scheme onto a situation for which is was not designed. It as far better to use new and appropriate tags that reflect the actual situation - software support should follow fairly rapidly if you come up with a suitable tagging scheme. Using hamlets, villages and incorrectly named roads to try to hack the various software will not work and is very unlikely to be supported by any of the software. Pierre-Alain Dorange's suggestion to use admin_level and some type of boundary is another reasonable way to approach the problem - although I would suggest that your probably want to create something like admin_level=11 or maybe even 12. 6 Is definitely too low. You may also be able to find inspiration in the tagging of Japan - my understanding is that they have a similar approach and may already have created a suitable scheme. -- Brian _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
