Plus codes form a hierarchical grid, so supporting them on hardcopy maps can easily be done when the maps are prepared for printing. I don't know if you're familiar with the UGSG topo maps, but if you aren't, I recommend looking at one of the 1:24000-scale maps from the late 1970s/early 1980s. It's got three location grids on it: UTM coordinates and latitude/longitude markings on the outside, and PLSS township/range/section markings on the map itself. Adding a plus-code grid to the map would be no problem, and wouldn't require importing billions of tags into OSM. -- Mark _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
