Not replying to anyone in particular but it seems there is a lot of dysfunctional communication here due to people focusing on something very specific without making up their mind (or at least not communicating their view) on the overall subject of the semantics of barrier mapping.
Therefore i would like to suggest everyone who presents their opinion on the matter here to - for clarity of everyone else - state what they think the semantics of barrier mapping are supposed to be. That means assigning to each of the mapping scenarios in the following a meaning (either 'invalid', '1d barrier' or '2d barrier'): closed way, barrier=fence closed way, barrier=fence, area=yes closed way, barrier=fence, leisure=playground closed way, barrier=fence, leisure=playground, area=yes multipolygon, barrier=fence multipolygon, barrier=fence, area=yes multipolygon, barrier=fence, leisure=playground multipolygon, barrier=fence, leisure=playground, area=yes closed way, barrier=hedge closed way, barrier=hedge, area=yes closed way, barrier=hedge, leisure=playground closed way, barrier=hedge, leisure=playground, area=yes multipolygon, barrier=hedge multipolygon, barrier=hedge, area=yes multipolygon, barrier=hedge, leisure=playground multipolygon, barrier=hedge, leisure=playground, area=yes closed way, barrier=ditch, waterway=ditch closed way, barrier=ditch, waterway=ditch, area=yes closed way, barrier=ditch, waterway=ditch, leisure=playground closed way, barrier=ditch, waterway=ditch, leisure=playground, area=yes -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/ _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
