Re: [Talk-transit] bus stops/platforms with electronic display of when the buses pass through
countdown is what I understand with a sequence of lamps, one for each minute. The other type I was talking about gives a lot more detail. Synoptic display sounds good to me, but since it's just a tag, I don't really care what it's called, although ticker could mean a few other things as well, so departures_board sounds about right. It would be good if we could come up with a standard, though. They have them in airports and railway stations as well. Departures_indicator? Departures_display? And a counterpart for Arrivals? display=departures/arrivals display_type=countdown/synoptic/all just an idea.

Re: [Talk-transit] bus stops/platforms with electronic display of when the buses pass through
The early ones in the UK (in London) were known as "countdown", and that's kinda stuck as a generic name, but I've no idea if anyone's used that as a tag.

Re: [Talk-transit] bus stops/platforms with electronic display of when the buses pass through
Hi, For bus stops I use ticker=yes/no. I'm sure I saw that documented somewhere and didn't come up with it on my own but a fairly exhaustive wiki search to provide a link for you came up completely dry so who knows.

Re: [Talk-transit] bus stops/platforms with electronic display of when the buses pass through
Hi, I use departures_board=yes/no on platforms (or stops). cheers ant On 01.10.2010 22:39, Jo wrote: Hi, I didn't find a tag to use for synoptic displays indicating when buses are coming through (either as a time left to wait, or a full display of normal time+delay) at the bus stop level. And another one (at the bus_station level) with all the buses that are passing through (like the ones in train stations and airports). That one may even deserve its own node to indicate where it is and possibly even an indication in what direction it's facing.
