[Tagging] Proposed removal of rendering support for natural=marsh in Openstreetmap-carto style

2019-07-31 Thread Joseph Eisenberg
I've proposed removing the rendering of natural=marsh in Openstreetmap-carto, the rendering stylesheet used for the "standard" map layer on openstreetmap.org https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/3829 The common tagging for a marsh is natural=wetland + wetland=marsh as with

Ferries use just amenity=ferry_terminal and route=ferry. You can also map the man_made=pier as the equivalent of a “platform”. Similarly, aerialways like gondolas have their own station tag, aerialway=station. The public_transport tags have never been popular for ferries or “aerialways”. On

If you read the talk page of the proposal,it’s clear that the stop_area relations are optional. I actually think that needs to be further clarified in the main text. I’m not certain if any database users actually manage stop_area relations for public transit? The ref can go on just the

For platform numbers or letters I've seen local_ref being used succesfully. For train platforms it is also possible they are divided into zones, where one part of the train may have one destination, and the other another destination. Such trains are split either in that station or a subsequent

Hi Markus, Thank you for your comments. I stand corrected on the Name v. Ref issue.  You are right; it would be better to map a platform and tag it with Ref= . As regards your other comment; I stand by my view that it is useful to know which services stop at a given station, but that any user

FWIW, I agree; No more tags, please, when we can manage with those that we have. Busses stop at bus-stops and the route information shows which bus-stops they serve and the times when they are due there, so these should be tagged with ID, Ref Number, etc. as appropriate.   A platform is a raised

Agreed, there are enough tags for public transport already. I don't think anything new is needed. If there is a platform where buses stop, then there's a bus stop, and a platform. The platform is a physical feature, and I believe it would still be a highway=platform even if the bus service were
