However, among your examples you cite "gnis:feature_id=*" The wiki page for this key notes: "Unlike other imported tags such as gnis:created=* and gnis:import_uuid=*, gnis:feature_id=* is meaningful beyond the import.

Agree with clemency for gnis:feature_id -- it's handy to be able to crossreference features with the GNIS database, which you can search by feature id here: https://geonames.usgs.gov/apex/f?p=138:1:0::::: J _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
