 Or landuse=flowerbed and possibly species=Mesembryanthemum crystallinum.


There is already leisure=garden. It (or [leisure=garden, gerden=flowerbed]
or maybe leisure=flowerbed)
would be far better than yet another too detailed landuse value.

there are also garden:type and garden:style, but they are for gardens, a 
flowerbed may also occur in different context (e.g. in the public space along 
streets or on squares).

I would not recommend garden=flowerbed as a general tag for flowerbeds for this 
reason. 

Maybe what was once suggested as landuse=grass (green on traffic separations, 
traffic islands etc.) could become landuse=street_decoration and could be 
subtagged as flowerbed then. On the other hand this would still interfere with 
landuse=highway/road
What about amenity=flowerbed?

What if its grass along a (maintained) river embankment, but roped off so no 
one can walk on it, as it is not a park?

What about the grass surrounding an airport (Narita's is well trimmed)?

What about the landscaping lawns that cover the front of large industrial 
facilities?

Ah!

Perhaps landscaping is a good tag. It covers all your urban examples, and 
mine as well. 

But it implies man-chosen and maintained plants, so landscaping=trees would 
only be trees that were planted there =\ 

But it would appropriate for most decorative or landcoverish items around a 
city or building that normally wouldn't fall under the natural tag 
(wood,meadow,scrub) nor barrier=hedge, which is what i use for the hedges that 
are on so many islands and along so many walkways in Japan.

Re: [Tagging] There are no 'non managed' woods. Was: landcover=trees definition

2015-08-18 Thread John Eldredge
Also, if a managed woodland ceases to be actively managed, so that it 
gradually reverts back to a wild state, does it eventually get 
reclassified? There are many places around the world where a former managed 
woodland, or cleared farm, has reverted back to forest.

I have just discovered that while landcover=trees has no Wiki page,

it's just about 1% of forest/wood uses) and we could officially define
as a generic tag for trees areas, when it's not clear for the mapper
if it's natural or not (forest vs wood).

Do you agree with this idea?



A system that makes the current confusing set up of natural=wood,
landuse=forest redundant then all for it. Apart from the fact very few
trees areas aren't managed in some form or another, any such distinction
should be sub tagged,  not by using separate, confusing key tags.

Re: [Tagging] Describe explicitly that values of highway tag do not imply anything about road quality (except highway=motorway and highway=motorway_link)

2015-08-18 Thread Mateusz Konieczny
I am planning on adding this information to wiki in near future.

Note that it afffects also highway=path - in that case some/many
people are convinced that there is some kind of difference of implied
quality between highway=path and highway=footway.

highway=path wiki page already contains information that
highway=path may have any type of surface

2015-08-12 10:56 GMT+02:00 Mateusz Konieczny matkoni...@gmail.com:

 What is below is supposed to document existing consensus rather than
 introduce new rule. I am aware that there is significant majority
 convinced that some road types universally guarantee or imply certain
 values (like widespread usage of highway=track to mark all unpaved
 roads and only unpaved roads, popular in some regions).

 I am also aware that in some regions dual carriageways are usually at
 least highway=tertiary, paved roads are at least
 highway=unclassified, highway=primary has at least 2 lanes in each
 direction or paved roads passable for the entire year are
 highway=trunk are good approximations - but it does not make it
 universally true or necessary requirement to use these tags.

 proposed description to be added on
 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:highway - maybe also on pages
 about individual road types.

 Only highway=motorway/motorway_link implies anything about quality.
 Other road types, from highway=trunk through highway=tertiary to
 highway=residential=residential/service or
 highway=path/footway/cycleway/track do not imply anything about road
 quality. In area with poor infrastructure road forming main road
 network, of the highest importance in region should be tagged
 highway=trunk - no matter whatever is is high-quality asphalt road or
 unsurfaced tract unusable after major rains.

 In absence of surface, tracktype and other tags describing quality of
 road one may try to extrapolate this information from
 value of highway tag. Note that this needs tuning for every region.
 Typical highway=primary may be drastically different in various places
 across the planet.

 It is highly recommended to add and use tags describing road quality
 like surface. In one region it may be obvious that all highway=tertiary
 are paved and highway=track unpaved but no assumption like that will
 work worldwide.

[Tagging] Amenities for kids parties

2015-08-18 Thread Severin Menard
Hi,

Downtown cities in Brazil often provide places taht can be rent to organize
parties for kids with different games. Here are a few sites providing
pictures to give you an idea: http://www.playland.com.br/atracoes/ or
http://www.clubedacrianca.com.br/?a=Diversao

Would leisure=kids_parties fit?

Sincerely,

[Tagging] Move tag to a subtag (landuse=port)

2015-08-18 Thread Stefano
Hi all,
following discussion in
https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/1731
I would like to move the tagging scheme for landuse=port[0], proposed by
me last year, under the industrial proposal [1].

For the data part, I would replace landuse=port with
landuse=industrial+industrial=port where applicable (checking each
occurrence). I already did this in my city http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/b0N

For the wiki page I would move the name from Tag:landuse%3Dport
to Tag:industrial%3Dport (I see that there are 3 translations, do they move
as well?)

What's your opinion?

Regards,
Stefano

It is important to distinguish between a port and a harbour, dock or 
terminal. These are often confused, and I see this confusion in 
reference [0]. A port is an administrative entity, whereas 
harbours/docks/terminals are physical entities. A port may contain any 
number of harbours/docks/terminals (=0) as well as other buildings or 
areas of land not contained with the boundaries the 
harbours/docks/terminals.


Any tagging scheme for these entities should take into account these 
important differences.

This should be expressed with subtags of place of worship:
amenity=place_of_worship
religion=muslim
denomination=shia/...

muharram=yes/no should be expressed with opening_hours instead, though it 
currently only supports the Gregorian calendar as far as I know.
weekly should be expressed with service_times.
throughout_the_year: I am not sure what you mean by that.
