Simon, Thank you. IMO a good example of descriptive usage is also: "OpenRouteService including POI search, geocoding and reverse geocoding, pedestrian, bicycle and car routing etc." http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/University_of_Heidelberg_GIScience_(Geoinformatics)_Research_Group

One solution could be to have a little marker symbol on the lower right of the map. If the user drags it over the map, it becomes permanent, and when you click the permalink, it takes it into consideration. That way you could drag several markers over the map. Janko 2013/5/23 Tobias Knerr > On

Hi Martin-- if I'm understanding you correctly, I actually took out a bug about this, and got a response. Looks like this is a known issue-- you can find it here: https://github.com/systemed/iD/issues/1408 On Thu, May 23, 2013 at 9:17 AM, Martin Koppenhoefer wrote: > I just discovered that iD p

I just discovered that iD presumes that some tags are exclusive, e.g. you can't add (at least not via preset) on the same way (line) more than one of these tags: highway, railway, power but afaik it is common practice to use railway=tram on the same way as highway=* (in certain circumstances). Rig

I don't think it's any easier for the end user. Instead, it causes the same problem for people who *don't* want a marker, plus the 'permalink' feature is already well-established. Best wishes, Andrew On Thu, 23 May 2013 18:03:54 Richard Mann wrote: > Easiest of all would probably be to includ

Easiest of all would probably be to include the marker by default, and let people edit it out if they don't want it. Richard On Thu, May 23, 2013 at 8:16 AM, Andrew Errington wrote: > Hi, > > I think that's slightly different to what I had in mind. My suggestion > was to make a very simple way

Hi, I think that's slightly different to what I had in mind. My suggestion was to make a very simple way to make a map marker. For example, if a friend asks me where a restaurant is, or a park, I want to go to the map and quickly create a link with a marker to send to my friend. I can paste the
