I know, let's use relations! (Now I have two problems...) But seriously, what about a very simple "contains" relation? A given relation would have one member (node or way) with role "parent" and one or more members (nodes or ways) with role "child". This would solve the hierarchy problem without assigning arbitrary numbers. A given entity could, of course, be a child in more than one relation, if a neighborhood spanned more than one containing place. I do think that this sort of thing should only be used if spatial relationships don't work: i.e. one or both related entities are nodes. -- ...computer contrarian of the first order... / http://aperiodic.net/phil/ PGP: 026A27F2 print: D200 5BDB FC4B B24A 9248 9F7A 4322 2D22 026A 27F2 --- -- Lensmen eat Jedi for breakfast. ---- --- -- _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
