I recently attended a weekend mapping party organised by the 57 North Hacklab up in Aberdeen. It was meant to have more of a hackday aspect but we just carried on mapping, and I really enjoyed the introduction to a new city it provided me with. It was also an interesting view of very geeky new mappers, familiar with the underlying concepts but new to the problem space, and so we were exploring the taginfo / wiki combination to figure out how to add things like contact details for local businesses.bv One thing we found was that a lot of the wiki pages had transitional sets of tags; moving from one namespace to a more specialised one. We weren't sure which tagset to use, and so of course one way to find out is to look at the volume in taginfo. In the end we looked at the centre of a comparable local city for commonly used tagsets, and took those patterns, can't remember how it all got tagged up in the end. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
