I wouldn’t like to say that it is definitive, because I haven't added playgrounds, parking or recreation facilities, but try http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/36439931 or http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/49655265#map=18/51.55355/0.69659 both of which relate to Southend High School for Boys

I see the diagram and suggested process on the Wiki page but do we have an actual mapped example that could be used to further illustrate this. A link to a changeset containing this, or whatever's appropriate, would be useful. If you've mapped one, now's the chance for a bit of glory in setting an

Sorry - should have added a bit more to that! Where I had this before, I could separate the grounds into two polygons. However, this one I can’t. So I’m thinking that I tag the buildings as amenity=school, name=*, ref:edubase=* and then put a boundary polygon in which I tag … amenity=school? Sh

Does anyone have information on the lifecycle of an Edubase ID? If a school changes name, does the ID change? What about if it changes status and becomes an academy? If a school splits, do both halves get a new ID or does one half carry on with the old one? (GSS identifiers used to identify geogr

Hi All, I have some questions about naming, and also the content of Edubase. In Southend (SS postcode area) there are some schools which have “alternative” names by which they are more commonly known. One example is Leigh, where the school is always known locally as “Leigh North Street”. So sho

Hi, Not sure if there's any discussion on the technical side of the UK OSM project yet but, while I might have little time for the organisational side of things, I'd be keen to be involved on the developer side if possible, particularly if we go for a PHP-based backend and javascript frontend.

OK, I’ve now added the ref:edubase tag to the half dozen or so schools in Southend that I have edited so far. As some of these are mis-matched in Rob W’s table (for understandable reasons, and the table is an excellent resource, don’t get me wrong!), hopefully it won’t take Rob too long to updat
