Do you know whether the latitude and longitude on the plaque are in the WGS84 that we use? ________________________________ From: Andrew Errington <erringt...@gmail.com> Sent: 11 August 2018 10:56 To: mmd Cc: Talk Openstreetmap Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] Is it technically and legally possible to add the Open Location Code to the OSM search?
I tag survey points with latitude and longitude (taken from the plaque on the survey marker). Then it is possible to see if they have been moved accidentally, and for users to check that they are actually in the surveyed location.

With all due respect, I think we've long crossed that point: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/KSJ2%3Alat https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/ngbe%3Alat_ed50 https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/gns%3ALAT https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/latitude -- _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org<mailto:talk@openstreetmap.org> https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
