Re: [Tagging] aerialway=drag_lift
So we return to the top of the problem, why we have aerialway=platter or t-bars ???!!! 2014/1/22 yvecai yve...@gmail.com Thing is, you can expect the average mapper to map an aerialway=drag_lift, but you can't expect every average mapper to distinguish between xyz-bar, platter, rope tow by reading the wiki toroughly. Drag_lift is the default and general tag for lazy mappers for lifts where the user is dragged. See it like a note=fixme if you want.

Re: [Tagging] aerialway=drag_lift
Why we have aerialway=platter or T-bars? Maybe the same reason we have building=house, building=residential, building=garage, building=industrial, etc. when we could just tag them all building=yes. They are different forms of a drag lift and the difference has significance to many people. If you do not know or care about the difference, then tag them aerialway=drag_lift (the generic) but please don't change the existing ones that state exactly what they are.

Re: [Tagging] aerialway=drag_lift
As an American, I hadn't heard of a platter lift either. One area I used to ski it had a Poma lift which apparently meets the description. Perhaps whoever chose platter lift wished to avoid a trade name. As mentioned on another response, there are significant differences to the skiers/riders depending on if the lift is a Poma, a T-bar, etc. and the difference is not just the occupancy. They should not be merged into one tag. -Tod On Jan 22, 2014, at 9:06 AM, Philip Barnes wrote: iD contains a lot of Americanisms. Until this discussion I had never heard of a platter lift.

According to taginfo, aerialway=platter is used much fewer than drag_lift and t-bar is almost at par with platter. The proposal states that this is only to be used for Platter lifthttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platter_lift, similar to a t-bar, but with a disc instead of a bar. Single-person only. http://wiki.osm.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Piste_Maps http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/aerialway#values drag_lift http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/aerialway=drag_lift 4 830 platter http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/aerialway=platter 1 471 goods http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/aerialway=goods 1 217 t-bar http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/aerialway=t-bar 1 206 so NO, DO NOT DELETE the mentioned values from the wiki! cheers, Martin ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging ___ Tagging mailing listTagging@openstreetmap.orghttps://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging ___ Tagging mailing listTagging@openstreetmap.orghttps://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] aerialway=drag_lift
and a rope_tow is a kind of drag_lift and j-bar is a kind of drag_lift. drag_lift + aerialway:occupancy=2 can be a t-bar, but it can also be some other type of drag_lift which may exist somewhere and we don't know about it.

Re: [Tagging] aerialway=drag_lift
Thing is, you can expect the average mapper to map an aerialway=drag_lift, but you can't expect every average mapper to distinguish between xyz-bar, platter, rope tow by reading the wiki toroughly. Drag_lift is the default and general tag for lazy mappers for lifts where the user is dragged. See it like a note=fixme if you want.
