[OSM-talk-ie] Bord na Móna railways

[Colm Moore]

Hi,

Happy New Year to all.

1. Bord na Móna www.bordnamona.ie is sometimes recorded on OSM as "Bord Na 
Móna" (capital N).

While OSM can understand the two are the same thing, other systems don't, e.g. 
on this map: 
http://www.itoworld.com/map/248?lon=-7.95104&lat=53.25239&zoom=10&fullscreen=true#
 
BnM railways are shown as blue while BNM railways are shown as green, as if 
they were separate operators.

Is there a simple method for doing mass changes like this?

2. Similarly, many Irish Rail facilities are recorded as IÉ (two letters) for 
Iarnród Éireann. In the English language "Irish Rail" should be used. 
Admittedly, as it is only two characters, this is something that has to be done 
much more carefully.

Colm

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Bord na Móna railways

[Donal Diamond]

Fixed Bord na Móna   see http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/28175757

I just did a wizard query on http://overpass-turbo.openstreetmap.ie/  for:

“operator="Bord Na Móna" in Ireland”

Then selected Export/load data into an OSM editor: Josm.

After that it was a simple select all and fix operator tag.
