Tod, there was a fair bit of discussion here in Feb (?) about terms. The
consensus then was that a camp site is the larger area containing a
number of pitches. This seems acceptable to most people around the
world.

Personally, I think of camp_site as meaning pitch but that was not
the general answer. So, I don't think that camp_site=pitch makes a lot
of sense as a tag.

Would camp_site:pitch=42   be more appropriate ?

But I'd be willing to bet that most trails are not part of a network of
other trails or a route but are stand-alone. The trails I once hiked in the
Adirondack Mountains in New York State all have names and trailheads but,
with a couple of exceptions, are not part of any route. I think the mixed
approach is best. If a given trail is part of  a larger system of trails, or
the area where it begins has related amenities, then the relation idea makes
sense. Otherwise, keeping it simple with a named trailhead node where the
transition from highway to footway takes place will suffice.

Without a relation, how can applications determine which trail the trailhead
belongs to? Is it all about rendering the trailhead icon?



Surely the tailhead will be at least in close proximity to the trail 
!!!


Why do applications need to determine this? I'd think the human end user 
will easly see the 'relationship'.


Where I to map a tail head .. it would be a single node ON the trail it 
self. As I see little point in mapping a trailhead I'll probably not map 
them .. in my local area they have no name, no amenities other than that 
provided by the other mapped features around them. Oh .. and the local 
trails were put in by a bulldozer to make fire trails thus they were 
highway=track, some have deteriorated to highway=path. Most of them link 
up to many other trails .. one of them is a formal trail some 250 km 
long (and yes that would have many 'trailheads').

 My comment. Any reason for the colours?
 

Honestly, no, I prefer the (eg) map makers determined what suits them
best. Quite happy to swap as you suggest but wonder if the proposal
would be better without any suggested Icons ? I like icons where they
describe what they are but here the colours are arbitrary.
 
 I'd think the blue is associated with water .. and might be better with 
 'standard' rather than 'serviced'? Possibly swap those two colours?

Folks, to revisit a topic that had lots of discussion last month !

I have updated the proposal page for camp_site=[basic; standard;
serviced; delux].

I now avoid the question of how to tag multiple instances of (eg)
amenity on the one node, area. People seem to have strong but
conflicting views and frankly, the proposal does not depend on any
particular style.


Good. The proposal it self has nothing to do with tagging other things in it 
self. Those concerned should raise their concerns as separate issues/proposals.



Please have a look and make (constructive if possible please) comments !

(you may well ask why I left it on the table so long, well, I have been
away, camping, for the last three weeks, I'd call that research !)




Should be more of that .. the 'research' that is.

Re: [Tagging] inuse, defacto

2015-04-19 Thread Andreas Goss

Why is it important? The main thing that matters is than only one
definition exists for an item, irrespective of how often it is used.


A few months ago I looked a TagInfo for tags that people are using but 
have no Wiki entry. Once you get closer to like 100 uses and below you 
find a lot of tags that probably only have one definition, but aren't 
really that great. Like wrong key, bad/not english, used by just a few 
mappers, maybe local etc.

For some users, that answer is yes.

I have a question about this. 

Assuming the entrance=trailhead + leisure=tourism model is used,  then as long 
as the path has the entrance=trailhead node named, then the mapping (for 
visually representing and naming the area of) the trailhead area using 
leisure=trailhead is fine, and can be named and rendered with an icon, but the 
area is not needed for the route relation.

if someone is getting walking directions, it will include the name of the 
trailhead and the fact that it is the entrance to the route, and be properly 
routed to the named entrance then along the trail.  

Someone is visually looking at the area, will see the area taken up by the 
trailhead (and the icons for the various amenities that leisure=trailhead 
encompasses), and see the rendered icon. 

If just tourism=trailhead is used on a node (because it is a named trailhead, 
but is tiny and has just a sign) then routing and visually rendering the icon 
would be handled correctly, right? 

seems similar to train stations and stop position for rail lines.

I believe the key is strange, typically in osm when we tag a=b b=c then c is a 
subtype of b, while here this scheme is used to tag a part of b
