Re: [Tagging] Sidewalk tagged on highway=cycleway
+1 I think this should be tagged with lanes, to be compatible with road lane tagging: bicycle:lanes:forward=designated|no foot:lanes:forward=no|designated Or if this looks a bit complicated (it does to me) invent a new tag, something like: designated:lanes:forward=bicycle|foot Janko Mihelić 2015-01-01 22:30 GMT+01:00 Hubert sg.fo...@gmx.de: +1.

Re: [Tagging] Accuracy of survey
While realigning the coastline is possible, they will be surveying for a decade or so just to figure out everything that moved. No, not a decade. While it will take some amount of time for changes to propagate to cartographic products according to their update cycle, the 'figuring out what moved' happens in essentially real time across the major geodetic network, and probably across a month depending on the ephemeris of the JAXA and ESA SARsat http://vldb.gsi.go.jp/sokuchi/sar/index-e.html platforms, although that is probably according to some sort of priority criteria derived from the GNSS data. See Geospatial Information Authority of Japan, 1.Continuous observation at the GNSS-based control stations and 4.Synthetic Aperture Radar observation at http://www.gsi.go.jp/ENGLISH/page_e30068.html Coastal survey is longer, because of temporal interval required to interpolate and detect sea level extremes between the phasing of the tides and the satellites, look angles, etc. Michael Patrick Geospatial Analyst http://www.gsi.go.jp/ENGLISH/page_e30068.html ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] hrmpf.
frederik, FR I think it's a slippery slope problem. Agreed that 13 nodes is not a FR lot. But at how many would you draw the line? 20? 100? 500? all 13 nodes have been checked and edited by me manually (not using search-and-replace). since this case is not covered in the mechanical edit policy, IMHO this policy does not apply. therefore, it should not matter if 13, 20, 100, 500 nodes have been changed this way. the main reason for the edit was the fact that those nodes contained both man_made=pipeline AND pipeline=marker tags, which was even wrong considering the old version of the pipeline wiki page. FR How many FR objects would you mechanically-edit without any extra discussion and FR solely based on an 18:4 vote in a tagging discussion? pipeline mapping is the field of a small minority of mappers. considering this logic, established tags in fields of minority interests can never be changed, unless it becomes the interest of the majority. apart from that, the main criticism is the change of type=* to sustance=* (which was also done in the changeset) as a result of the proposal. I see a point here, considering that the change of a tag affects map styles, software, ... as mentioned by SomeoneElse. I followed the proposal process step by step, and it does say nothing about notifying others. thanks to Matthijs for his research comment. cu ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] Tagging private property
Yes, owner may be used on areas (for example I encountered it used on landuse=forest). But I think that typically it is not really useful information to tag - hard to verify, changes in unnoticeable ways, hard to use (the same owner may be named in many ways). Also, legal ownership structure is sometimes overcomplicated for legal purposes (no, it is not owned by city - it is is owned by company A, owned by foundation B that is controlled by city). 2015-01-02 7:33 GMT+01:00 Megha Shrestha meghashrest...@gmail.com: Do we tag the whole area as owner =* ???
