is there a particular reason to use a new key for this, instead of e.g. natural=mountain_pass (or natural=pass)? There is only few of these I admit: http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=natural%3Dpass Cheers, Martin PS: Just now I saw that the wiki content is much older than what I thought on first glimpse: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:mountain_pass&action=history you can find the full history here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:mountain_pass&action=history Admittedly there are historical reasons for this tagging. IMHO it would still be nicer to have them in natural (which I see a key for geographical features, e.g. similar to peak). With the current way of many people doing maps (osm2pgsql without hstore) it creates problems (new columns) when having a lot of keys (and here there are no values other than "yes" and a very few quite obsolete "no"). _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
