I agree that tagging the entire lease area as landuse=industrial is not correct. Part of the reason for posting is that I'm looking for alternative ways to tag the large lease areas. Is there a boundary tag that someone can suggest?
Also, someone suggested tagging the wellsite with man_made=petroleum_well. This tag is meant to be for nodes representing a single well. The wellsites in alaska can contain dozens of individual well heads so that tag is not appropriate. I have tagged the pipelines linking the wellsites with the processing facilities as follows man_made=pipeline location=overground or underground substance=oil operator=ConocoPhillips On Sun, Oct 15, 2017 at 7:09 PM, François Lacombe <fl.infosrese...@gmail.com > wrote: > Hi > > Additionnaly, it's recommended to use dedicated tag instead of > industrial=* (or as general man_made) > Eg. power substation are mapped as power=substation and not > industrial=substation > oil=wellsite sounds great > > Think about using man_made=pipeline + substance=oil to link wellsites to > processing facilities > > All the best > > *François Lacombe* > > fl dot infosreseaux At gmail dot com > www.infos-reseaux.com > @InfosReseaux <http://www.twitter.com/InfosReseaux> > > 2017-10-15 12:29 GMT+02:00 Christoph Hormann <o...@imagico.de>: > >> On Sunday 15 October 2017, Dave Swarthout wrote: >> > I'm trying to determine the ideal tagging scenario for the many oil >> > fields in the State of Alaska.
