Is anyone else attending these events? I only heard about them from this listserv which I only just joined last week. I'm considering going to the Hackathon event Friday/Saturday. It looks like great fun. On Tue, May 6, 2014 at 11:50 AM, maning sambale emmanuel.samb...@gmail.comwrote: Here's a

[Talk-GB] POI features: node vs way?

difficulty. What is the general recommendation in this case? Tag both the polygon (building) and one of its nodes as amenity=pub, etc? Thanks, Nick ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb

Re: [Talk-GB] POI features: node vs way?

as point features, though, it's not been something I've had to deal with until now when I've noticed a few point features converted to areas. Is there an actual existing tool to do this (I use osmosis and osm2pgsql) or do I need to write my own? Thanks, Nick -danstow...@gmail.com wrote

of osm2pgsql? Thanks, Nick ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb

Re: [Talk-GB] POI features: node vs way?

The osmconvert has the ability to turn all the areas and ways to single nodes: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmconvert Shaun OK thanks. Funny when you've been working with OSM for a long time you actually get out of the loop because you keep doing things the old ways you've always done

OK just read it properly... turns out they're not particularly sanctioning us as it happens - just having a go at the Guardian which I suppose is par for the course for the likes of the Adam Smith Institute. -Nick Whitelegg nick.whitel...@solent.ac.uk wrote: - To: talk-gb
