Re: [Talk-transit] Tagging of railway station

Hey We already have public_transport=stop_area and the site-relation in use with stations. For the buildings with several levels we even have level-relations. As these areas are sometimes quite complex we won't be able to map them all in a simple way. cu fly On 18.12.2013 21:58, Richard Mann wr
