It's more than clunky. It's simply failing when someone is reversing

I will repeat here what I already said about traffic signals : I also
don't like relations in general excepted when we have no alternative.
Everybody shall be able to add a node saying here is a traffic light

software, it will need to be linked to its intersection. And for this,
the best solution is the relation. It could be even added
half-automatically (with some manual validation) when it's missing by
searching the nearest intersection (could be a job for a QA tool). I
guess something similar is done for speed traps.

Re: [Tagging] tag proposal for soft play centres

2013-11-05 Thread Erik Johansson
It has occured to me that this seems to be more of something simliar
to  tourism=theme_park, yet smaller. I don't know if there is such a
tag that is widespread or if it's better to use your own tag.

I think it's not such a good idea to use leisure=playground + fee=yes,
since it most certainly is not a playground, but sure playgrounds
really do span a very big range from a sandbox to extremely large
contraptions .  I have now tagged two soft play centes with
leisure=play_land which is a direct translation from Swedish. Feel
free to adopt or change my tags.

It would be interesting to tag place where kids can play, many
museums/science centers have that as well.

 Hi Dom,

 I don't know about voting ...

 But I read your interesting proposal.
 I completely agree that indoor-playgrounds should be mapped.

 In Switzerland, it seems that they are normally mapped as leisure=playground 
 and indoor=yes, see example:

 http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/1687169329

 I personally think that keeping things together is better, so why not stay 
 with playground? There are managed playgrounds, and there are indoor_play 
 which are free. There are outdoor playgrounds with opening-hours 


 So, why not use:

 Leisure=playground
 Indoor=yes|no
 Fee=yes|no
 Managed=yes|no
 Opening-hours=*
 Operatortype=public|private
 Operator=*

 etc.

 Maybe a template would help more than a new tag?

No, you are simply wrong here. Oneway is a legal concept that really
applies for the way and it is different from turning restrictions that
applies to particular combination of traversing on the graph edges (ie.,
a relation). And you cannot ignore turning restrictions as it by no means
guarantees that the way itself is oneway legally, just the turning is
forbidden from the way you're coming from.

Back to your original post, you want to introduce alerts into
navigation tools. But you seem to have some gaps on this subject. Of
course, routing engines have to handle both, turn restriction
relations and oneways tags on ways.
But, as already said, the oneway restriction applies to the whole way,
for all vehicles arriving there, even from private properties. Where
stops or giveway are just prioritizing the access to an intersection.
Like traffic signals, they should have a minor impact on the routing
itself (some small penalties compared to the highway importance). What
you ask is more please GPS, tell me the traffic signs I'm just seeing
now with my eyes.

[Tagging] admin_boundary with multiple levels / county free citys / Kreisfreie Staedte

2013-11-05 Thread Florian Lohoff

Hi,

in Germany we have the concept of countys and citys within those
countys. E.g. admin_level=8 within admin_level=6.

Now as an exception every rule follows bigger citys are their own
countys, or dont belong to a county. (Kreisfreie Städte)

Administrative wise these citys take all administrative burden
of the countys and their respective citys, so they are admin_level
6 AND 8.

The problem which arises now is that these citys are currently tagged
with an admin boundary of admin_level=6.
Thus nominatim is not able to find whether this is a real county
or a county free big city. The result is that nominatim returns the name
of the city in the county address detail and no city (due to the lack of 
further admin_level 8 boundarys).

A fix would be an admin_level=6;8 on the boundary or duplicating
the relation.

I'm surprised you still have such questions in Germany. Your

the boudary way : put the highest admin level (thus, with the lowest

What I guess is that the admin_level on the way is just used for

For the county free big city, simply don't create a relation with

In the UK we do the opposite. In Unitary Authorities, which combine
the role of the county with the district (sounds like the same as
the Kreisfreie Staedte) we tag the UA as admin_level=6, i.e. at the same
level as counties, and not admin_level=8 which is the level for the
districts. 

We also occasionally use designation with specific values (from a
controlled vocabulary) to distinguish between the different entities
which may share an admin level.

 and what is on the relation. But I can tell how it *should* be : on

The way is irrelevant. The admin boundarys is a collection of ways,
be it waterways, highways or other ways making up the boundary.

The relation contains an admin_level=6 which is the level for Countys.
With the Kreisfreie Städte the name on _that_ relation is actually the
Citys name although the level would imply it to be the countys name.

So nominatim is right to show the name as the countys name as thats
exactly what has been tagged. But its not only the countys name
but more the citys name.

 the boudary way : put the highest admin level (thus, with the lowest
 numerical number). And create one relation per admin_level, obviously.

 What I guess is that the admin_level on the way is just used for
 rendering purpose, not by nominatim which should exclusively work with
 admin boundary relations or place nodes.

How would nominatim really find adresses belonging to a place/city? We
have been there in 2008 without any boundarys and it was a mess to
decide which place node this address belongs to - distance is not
a measure for choosing your place.

 For the county free big city, simply don't create a relation with
 admin_level 6 but keep only the one exclusively for admin_level 8.

The point is that the administrative boundarys is one of level 6 AND
level 8.

- if you only put a level 8 on the relation you loose the information
  about the importance of the administrative city.
- if you only put a level 6 on the relation you loose the information
  about the city. A county will be the same as the countyless city which
  it isnt - and there is no way to tell if this is a county without any 
  fine grained boundarys or a countyless city.. This is what we have right now.
- If you create both relations e.g. 6 _and_ 8 in seperate relations its
  not easy to tell whether this is really a countyless city unless
  geometrically comparing the boundary.

So we need a better way to mark multi level admin boundarys.

admin_level=6;8

could be a solution. Or a new tag like

admin_level=6
admin_level_low=8

or

admin_level_range=6-8

Just brainstorming.

Re: [Tagging] admin_boundary with multiple levels / county free citys / Kreisfreie Staedte

 I'm surprised you still have such questions in Germany. Your
 description is not clear since you don't explain what is on the way
 and what is on the relation.



it shouldn't matter. Mostly you don't need a relation at all (if not to
reduce redundancy by overlapping ways), as long as there aren't
enclaves/exclaves involved. Actually the ways don't have to be any tags at
all (IMHO), but boundary=administrative surely helps to reduce destruction
by mappers with less capable editors (those that don't expose relations).



 But I can tell how it *should* be : on
 the boudary way : put the highest admin level (thus, with the lowest
 numerical number). And create one relation per admin_level, obviously.



for which admin levels? For all admin levels there would be if it wasn't an
exception? If they are admin_level=6 and there is no 8 in this case? There
is a similar case with Bremen, Hamburg and Berlin, which are level 4 (and 6
and 5?). I'd also use distinct relations for admin_level=6 and 4 in this
case, but this is disputed in the German comunity.




 For the county free big city, simply don't create a relation with
 admin_level 6 but keep only the one exclusively for admin_level 8.



-1, as they are at the same level as a county (or Berlin/Hamburg/Bremen is
at the same level as a Bundesland) they should definitely be
admin_level=4 (or 6 in Flos example), but the question is if we should also
make a relation with admin_level=6 or 8. IMHO yes.

Duplicating the relation seems easiest and is what I'd probably do,
but of course it is not 100% correct as there aren't two different
admin boundaries (or, in the case of Hamburg, and Berlin, three - here
admin_levels 4,6,8 are folded into one).

Brian Quinion has actually attempted to duplicate the Bremen admin
boundary for this very reason in early 2013

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/14997436

and the edit was promptly reverted by user adjuva

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/16623822

who claimed that his was tagging for the geocoder. So if we wanted
to make it a rule that boundaries are duplicated, we'll certainly have
some explaining to do.

Bye
Frederik

I don't see any advantage. Leisure so far was used mostly for sport related 
places, parks, nature reserves and playgrounds, generally casinos and even more 
gambling and betting places don't fit so nicely in IMHO and people would 
probably expect it in amenity, because most stuff is in amenity. 

Don't know what the problem would be that amenity is said to be overcrowded or 
full ;-)

Anyway, any tag that can be established is fine in the end, so it doesn't 
really matter as long as people are OK with it and it fits sufficiently into 
the rest of the system in order to avoid confusion among the mappers.

Maybe we can apply the idea of a geometric relation (I think first proposed
by Frederik, I believe) and use that as a member for an administrative
relation. The geometric relation is tagged like a multipolygon and only
represents the boundary as an abstract line. Then we have several admin
boundary relations of different admin_level=* tags that has this geometric
relation as a member.

Cons:
1. We would have 1 more relation to deal with
2. The relation-in-a-relation concept is complicated

Pros:
1. It would be slightly easier to determine that two admin_level boundaries
are coincident without doing geometric calculations or member comparisons.

Now that I've written the above, I think the complexity is too big for the
problem it solves.

So I'm in favor of duplicated relations.
