Across the United States are a number of concrete arrows, and in a few cases the surviving beacon towers, that were part of the once-extensive Transcontinental Airway System:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcontinental_Airway_System In 1933, there were 1500 of them. I have mapped a few, as have others. Some are mapped as points - I just converted this one to an area: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1571356621 No doubt some remain to be mapped at all. Can we find any more? There is no consistent tagging, which makes finding them (and showing the full set) difficult. Some were or are wrongly tagged wikidata=Q6546269 (wrongly because Q6546269 describes the system not the individual marker) I have started, for want of a better alternative, to use system:wikidata=Q6546269 Can we agree a consistent set of tags? I have started drafting a schema at: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Transcontinental_Airway_System -- Andy Mabbett http://pigsonthewing.org.uk _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
