What's the proper thing to do when there are multiple GNIS ids for the
same node?
In general: delete ones that are wrong, copy the gnis:* tags to the polygon
if you're upgrading a node to a polygon.
For instance:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=35.131959lon=-106.516827zoom=18layers=M
There are two identical nodes with identical coordinates:
Saint Stephens United Methodist Church, gnis:feature_id=939399
Saint Stephen's United Methodist Church, gnis:feature_id=914456
Obviously these are meant to be the same point. What's the proper way to
merge these together, since a node can't have two gnis:feature_id tags?
Is it okay to just delete one?
Yep. Delete the wrong one.
Another example has three entries:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=35.081997lon=-106.61987zoom=18layers=M
University Art Museum (gnis:feature_id=929517)
Jonson Gallery of the University Art Museum (gnis:feature_id=929518)
Jonson Gallery (gnis:feature_id=933296)
