Hi, I saw that a user recently added a suggestion in the wikipage Key:source <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:source> to add the date of the source of the object in a separate tag called source:date=*.
Example: source=survey source:date=2014-08-15 Another example: source:name=XYZ source:name:date=2011-11-13 This suggestion was added to the page having as a goal machine-readability, however the suggestion that was there before the page was changed also seems to be machine-readable. It was to add the date in the source tag itself, using the same date standard, after specifying the source. The previous examples would be "source=survey 2014-08-15" and "source:name=XYZ 2011-11-13". As far as I can see, using only one tag is preferred, and as long as the format is respected (which will be respected if the user was interested in machine-readability anyway), it can still be read by a machine even with a simple regular expression. What do you guys think? -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/Date-of-survey-tp5828018.html Sent from the Tagging mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
