Re: [talk-ph] Icons on POI's - Proposal

2014-05-25 Thread Mark Cupitt
Another thought, which I think is best, is to symbolize the 2/7 in the top
left corner of the actual icon, hard code to look just for this 24/7 so it
will fit.

 We can display it as part of the text ie: Mercury Drug 24/7 or add another
 graphic on top of he icon, like a clock or similar. I think the text is
 better as it it unambiguous but am open to whatever everyone wants

 Hi Eugene, while we are discussing this, is it worth displaying the
 opening hours as part of the poi description if it is in the database?? It
 is kind of relevant to people who look at a map ..

 Thoughts?


 Yes. The opening hours is useful to users. But I have to say that this
 data is quite low on the priority of (at least) local OSM mappers. In OSM,
 it's more important to know where a store is than knowing if it is open or
 not.

 That said, the special value of opening_hours=24/7 is definitely very,
 very useful and I would suggest that this be shown on the map somehow. For
 example, knowing where the 24-hour Mercury Drug stores are is very useful.

 Taginfo to the rescue!
 http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/place%3Aph#values

 Based on Taginfo, 95% of the values of the place:ph=* tag is barangay
 with a total of number of 1,300. This is actually quite low. There are
 almost 42,000 barangays in the Philippines.

 The other values are purok and sitio (which are unofficial subunits of a
 barangay) and a few other values that I think are wrong uses of the tag.


To answer the other question, I think the intention of the place:ph=* tag
is to definitely indicate that a node tagged as place=village refers
specifically to an official barangay instead of some other village such
as residential subdivisions and gated communities (which should really be
tagged with place=neighbourhood)

Personally, I would like to use the international designation=* tag to
indicate that a place is an official barangay instead of using a
Philippine-specific tag like place:ph=*.

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:designation

Thus, my personal preference is place=village, designation=barangay instead
of place=village, place:ph=barangay.

I have not been using taginfo because it returns for the whole world, but
in this case it works because this tag is only used in the philippines,
good one.

Thanks eugene

Ok, I will check for both instances then,

Actually, the colon ': in the tag name can confuse a database in some
circumstances, if anyone is messing with this themselves, you have to
denote the column header as place:ph with double quotes
