Should standalone ATM's be tagged as amenity:atm, but ATM's in a bank be amenity=bank atm=yes Or ...? Thanks, Tac ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

I thought the best practice was to define a building as a way, then put a bank node within the building, and possibly at ATM node as well. I guess it could be defined as a relation. It doesn't appear that there are many ways with amenity=bank, they're almost always nodes, even though they're almo

Yeah, tag keys should follow that, but not key values. I'm sure there are values with single and double quotes, commas and semi-colons. Does OSM support any sort of multi-tag structure, like "cuisine:japanese" AND "cuisine:thai"? Tac On Tue, May 28, 2013 at 7:18 PM, Gr

Thanks, that's helpful. I'm working on a UI where people type what they see, and the system translates that to the appropriate tags. The brand tag is particularly useful in this context, and one I wasn't even aware of, so thanks for pointing it out. Tac On Wed, May 29, 2013 at 8:08 AM, Serge Wr

I see "amenity:Restaurant" and "amenity:restaurant" are both returned from the api. And I just discovered that postgres does case-sensitive LIKE's. Sigh. Tac On Wed, May 29, 2013 at 5:35 PM, Martin Koppenhoefer wrote: > > > > > On 29/mag/2013, at 18:01, Eugene Alvin Villar wrote: > >> True, b

How are your photos geotagged? Is it coded in the EXIF data, or is there separate metadata? And if so, what kind of data do you have? We have a photo-based tagging project that doesn't use OSM, but I have some experience in methods for feature extraction, I'd be happy to share some of our approa
