Hi,
There appear to be 2 competing tags for use with mountain ranges.
Neither have any wiki documentation!
A) place=region, region=mountain_range
Mostly relations with outer ways only.
B) natural=mountain_range
Again as relations - with outer ways and at least some with nodes
representing peaks within the mountain range.
---------------------------------
So .. to combine them into one and standardise the format?
Introducing
C) landform=mountain_range
To map as a node - centred on the area, a simple open way along hte
spine of the range, a closed way on the area of the range or a relation
consisting of ways forming a closed are of the range.
No entry of peaks, ridges etc as these will change with new entries, and
can be forund by searching inside the area if the area is mapped.
-----------------
The new tag can run with the older tags so they will still exist while
the new tag establishes itself.
Well, what do you think?
