This seems reasonable. But is there evidence (wiki page, taginfo stats, etc) that this is the preferred way of tagging a building with N levels? If so, it would be helpful if you were to provide details of it in your post. This would save everyone evaluating the merits of your proposal from having to look it up themselves. > Also I propose removal of "addr:housenumber=?" on these objects, and move > "name=N" to "addr:housenumber=N". I presume that N stands for a number here. If so, I can see the logic in moving name=N to addr:housenumber=N where there is currently no addr:housenumber key on the object. (Though again a link to the wiki page describing the addressing tagging would be helpful.) But I'm not so sure why you would want to remove an existing addr:housenumber=? tag. Why would you presume in the event of a conflict between a name=N and an addr:housenumber=? that the "N" is the correct house number, while the "?" is worthless and should be thrown away? I think that your rational here needs to be explained further before you proceed, perhaps with some typical data to illustrate the problem you're attempting to correct. (You can't expect people to look through the .osm file to find this out.) However, if I'm interpreting your summary/overview page correctly, the number of objects that would have their addr:housenumber=? tag removed, is very small. So why don't you just evaluate and edit these manually before proceeding with any automated edits? > http://worstfixer.000a.biz/03-building=levels/overview.html Robert. -- Robert Whittaker _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
