I'll retag all the ones I added to the historic=archaeological_site
site_type=fortification fortification_type=ringfort tagging scheme, from
the other one. So the numbers will change soon. 🙂

Hi all,
I mapped a lot with historical=earthworks earthworks=rath. A few years
brianh came up with a tagging scheme for historic objects like that in
Ireland, and that was the tagging for ringforts, so I used that. I have
no strong attachment to it, and would be willing to change to something
else.
I've mapped them from the GSGS map combined with current aerial, and as
a closed way. We can do more accurate than a node! 🙂
The Archeological Survey of Ireland has all these (and more!) mapped,
and I believe there's some attempt to ask the Dept Culture, Heritage &
Gaeltacht to open that out, but nothing yet. That would certainly aid
mapping.

Hi,

Was someone running a project on mapping / tidying-up raths /
ringforts? I notice many are mapped in Cork and Kilkenny, but few
elsewhere.
I haven't come across many of these until the last few weeks. In that
time, I seem to have been tagging them incorrectly.
Can I check the correct tagging is:
historic=archaeological_site
site_type=fortification
fortification_type=ringfort ?
I checked http://stat.latlon.org/ie/latest/ for the word "fort", (I
didn't check for name~fort or description~fort) and there are many
tagging variations (not all of these will be ringforts).
