Exactly. ------------------------------------- Life cycles have quite a few more stages than are yet codified in OSM tags. For example: 1. Citizen concept (no landowner/government involvement yet) 2. Proposed 3. Planned 4. Under construction 5. Operating 6. Broken (but expected to be fixed) 7. Disused (not expected to be fixed). Shades of this include abandoned, vacant, empty. 8. Preserved (e.g. a stabilized ruin). 9. Converted (e.g. historic:railway=funicular). 10. Proposed for removal. 11. Under demolition. 12. Historic. OSM supports multiple maps, so one can imagine a map that highlights structures at risk (#6-#8). We already have maps that highlight just what's gone (#12). Paper mappers tend to get involved at step #2 or #3 for major projects and hold on to them until step #10 or #11. What I'm looking for now is a solution to Step #6, along with a definition of HOW it is broken, and hopefully an operator= tag to show I have read through: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Comparison_of_life_cycle_concepts http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_Features/Status
