Re: [Tagging] objectivity

2017-10-29 Thread Colin Smale
The best way to keep it objective would be to tag what it IS and not
what it is CALLED. An outdoor shop is what some people call a shop (not
so controversial) which sells camping gear (probably not too
controversial) and clothing, safety equipment, ... 

If we had a taxonomy of classes of things, mapped to a managed
vocabulary, we can say what the shop sells, at whatever level is
appropriate. Maybe at a high level, like "clothing", and maybe at a much
lower level like "rock climbing shoes"... whatever you want. Of course
each shop will sell multiple types of thing.

 Its a bit more than simply allowed, although I do think dog friendly is
a bit subjective in the same way motorcycle friendly was.

Maybe you can tag the features that make it dog friendly, such a jar of
biscuits, water bowls provided for example.

Cafes are not somewhere you would normally classify as dog friendly,
non-assistance dogs are not allowed where food is being served, but dog
friendly pubs are fairly common.

Sorry, forget this last sentence.

Given that there's like wheelchair=yes and kids_area=yes [1] one could
introduce s'thing like animal friendly properties to amenities (bar,
restaurant, hotel, ...).
But IMHO it should be declared as such at the location and/or the webpage.
No idea yet about the key/values except that it should include also
other animaly besides dogs :-).

Hi,

There are similar keys like "wheelchair" and allowed vehicles in
streets (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access ).
If there's enough objectivity in the tag definition I'd support that.
That's probably to be discussed over at tagging mailing list.

Re: [Tagging] Multiple offices at the same address - (Multiple values for one key)

2017-10-29 Thread Janko Mihelić
We are arguing about a temporary state of affairs. Sooner or later,
Nominatim and others will be able to assign addresses to nodes inside a
polygon, and renderers will be able to see that the same address is
rendered 3 times. Until then we have to do what we can with what we have.
And not start making up some strange new schemes to make newcomers lifes
hell.

Just start rendering offices, and the problem is temporarily averted.

there’s nothing incompatible with street addresses having to be unique and 
multiple objects having the same address properties. Indeed, they are all 
located at the same unique address.

I think that's fine. By adding the address tags to a shop, someone who
searches for the shop, immediately has the full formed address for it.

By adding an address as it's own generic node (mailbox, driveway, entrance,
etc) or way (parcel of land) someone who searches for the address can find
it irrespective of the shop. This is kind of what GNAF in Australia offers
by the way, complementary to address existing on other OSM features.
