Thanks guys, I didn't realise that landuse was just for large areas. I
will definitely try the building:use tag on these as I want to show
they're just houses not anything else.

[Talk-GB] Help Needed

2010-05-02 Thread Seventy 7
The buildings have been tagged as both building=yes and landuse=residential and 
I think this will be confusing the renderer - landuse is used for areas and the 
buildings (and everything else) sit on top.

So tag the general area as landuse=residential (a few ways to do this) and just 
tag the houses as building=yes.

I have looked but quickly got confused by the sheer amount of data
there. 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.43633&lon=0.75688&zoom=17&layers=B000FTF
is the link to the section of Thames Avenue where I placed the
buildings.

Thanks again for the help :)

Hi Roy,

Do you have a link to the map area so that someone can look at the data to see 
what the problem is?

You should be able to have landuse and buildings without a problem.

Have you looked at the tags that are used for the buildings in central london, 
for a comparison?

Just a quick couple of questions really.

I have created buildings and residential areas, i.e. marked out where
the houses are along a street according to OS data and memory, but it
doesn't appear in Mapnik or Osmarender. Could this be because there
has been an entire residential area added from Landsat? Also, if this
is the case is it safe to remove the landsat area and mark the
buildings out more accurately. What will this do to the state of the
map in that particular area, i.e. will it still look "Ok"?

Sorry again for so many questions at once thought I'd better ask them
in one message :)

Thanks guys!
