mueschel		12018-06-19 20:56:57 UTCHjart Ok, maybe this one should have been documented a bit better: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/AutoAWS#autoAWS_0.3_rc1
22018-06-19 20:59:45 UTCmueschel Sorry, I overlooked this - a Google search for "autoaws osm" didn't show something relevant.
I added it again: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/59990763
32018-06-20 22:15:02 UTCHjart I'll recommend you search directly on the OSM wiki
42018-06-20 22:35:20 UTCmueschel Unfortunately this would miss discussions and "documentation" that is only in the mailing lists or forums - many people just don't use the Wiki.

Vladimír Domes		12018-06-20 19:49:03 UTCmueschel Hi,
I noticed this changeset because you introduced several new keys like "service:bicycle:rental:opening_hours", which are not used in other places. But the tagging seems strange - you tagged it as bicycle_parking, but it seems to be a station for rental bikes. Could you clarify this?
22018-06-21 08:33:38 UTCVladimír Domes Hi, Yes I can.
Rekola bikesharing company is new in Ostrava city. They use threir own bicycle stands and also existing stands (bicycle_parking).

Firstly I tagged their own stands as bicycle_rental, but we have talk in our Czech community (https://openstreetmap.cz/talkcz/c2497) and I changed bicy...

you added the tag "VMI=yes" to these buildings. This is not a common to mark that these buildings belong to one group. I guess you're looking for a tag like "operator=VMI".

it looks like this import of data went wrong. Most of the objects have only strange tags like the ones below.

you used tags like "FR:TRANSDOME:CODE_ARRET" here. These are new and not used in other places yet.
In any case reference numbers like these should be in a "ref" tag, e.g. "ref:FR:TRANSDOME:CODE_ARRET".

it looks like something went wrong with this import. 1096 ways have some strange tags:
Cls_CheFor=04
Gestion=MFFP

Could you check and fix this?
22018-06-01 09:22:47 UTCMateusz Konieczny - bot account Can you link the place where this import was discussed?
32018-06-02 15:38:18 UTCMaximusSayan it does look like there was error on the import. will fix it and see to find where was the problem. the tagging have been made to keep the information from the MERN and the use of these off road road section in the ZEC.
42018-06-12 10:44:38 UTCmueschel There are also roads overlapping already existing ways like this one: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/592401176

I think that this import should be reverted and then reimported in a clean way.
52018-06-13 09:53:15 UTCMateusz Konieczny Note that as it is apparently undiscussed import it may be reverted without any discussion.

22018-06-05 21:50:44 UTCmueschel Sorry, I don't speak Russian.
Names of mapping projects and contributors should not appear as tags on objects but rather in the changeset tags.
32018-06-05 21:56:17 UTCSowa1980 Там в тегах указана фамилия, по тому как проекты типовые , этот момент был обсужден в чате телеграмм в россии , вот что бы было понятно о чем речь ссылка https://ru.wikipedia.org...
42018-06-05 22:08:29 UTCmueschel yes, i know what a water tower is.
If you could describe what the meaning of "project:author" is, we could look for a better tag - this looked a lot like someone who wanted to put his own name into the tags. If you want to introduce a new tag like this, please write a page in the OSM wiki...

72018-06-05 22:37:29 UTCmueschel Ok, tagging the style of a water tower is indeed useful information, but this was not at all clear reading the tag.

I think you should consider changing the tag - "project:author' is in no way related to what you describe here - that would rather be something like 'water_tower:type' or 'wate...

122018-06-06 15:38:57 UTCmueschel I now used the tag "water_tower:design" - because there are already a few "tower:design" in the database, and this seems to make sense.

142018-06-06 18:47:06 UTCmueschel Sorry, the automatic translation of this is just incomprehensible.
In English, the word "author" doesn't exist in the context of designing buildings.

Maybe 'disused:'?

Jan
22018-06-01 12:15:48 UTCGer Walsh Probably something that I should research further on the wiki- the term "disused", in my mind, has suggestions of "derelict" or "abandoned"... I merely meant that it is a viable unit, available/in suitable condition to be rented, and waiting for a tenant. But I am happy...
32018-06-01 12:54:28 UTCmueschel Ah, ok.
There is either the 'temporary:' prefix
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/temporary_(conditional)

Or you could add it to the opening_hours key, e.g. as "2018 Jan 01 - 2018 Jun 25 off"

Linda.
32018-05-30 11:32:43 UTCmueschel Please don't use tags to add private markers. Keep in mind that there are thousands of copies of the OSM database worldwide, and nobody besides you can make any use of these tags.

mueschel		12018-05-14 06:34:07 UTCPT-53 Hallo mueschel,
Du hast an diesem zurückgebauten Weg https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/371762169/history removed:highway auf not:highway geändert. Warum ?
22018-05-14 08:55:04 UTCmueschel Der ehemalige Weg an sich ist wohl keine erhaltenswerte Information, auch wenn er im Augenblick in der Datenbank bleiben sollte als Markierung, dass die Luftbilder nicht mehr stimmen.
Für so etwas nehme ich eher not: als removed:.
Ich habe den Weg aber auch nur umgetagged, weil ich die ander...
32018-05-14 11:39:19 UTCPT-53 Hallo mueschel,
wir sind uns einig, daß der Weg - solange er noch auf den Luftbildern zu sehen ist - noch in OSM verbleiben soll.
Aber warum verwendest Du not:highway statt wie im Wiki vorgegeben removed:highway ?

And: There is no information about the source. "esri World Imagery" is obviously wrong.

muindre		12018-05-09 11:55:49 UTCmueschel Typically toilets do use other tags.

type_of_toilet -> toilets:disposal

muindre		12018-05-09 11:51:13 UTCmueschel Hi,
the tag "gender_type" is not common. OSM uses "gender=male/female/mixed".

the tag "type" is not used for schools. We do use "school=*" or "isced:level".

muindre		12018-05-09 11:49:09 UTCmueschel Hi,
the tags "cost_per_litre", "cost_per_liter" and "cost_in_ksh" do not fit to our usual tags.

OSM knows fee = yes/no as well as charge=*

The tag "village" is not common as well. To note the location we use "is_in:...=*"

Mateusz Konieczny		12018-05-07 20:12:50 UTCmueschel Would you please check the edits and not reintroduce wrong tags by doing reverts blindly? And: if you comment a changeset of another user, please wait for an answer, otherwise discussion is pointless.
22018-05-07 20:29:56 UTCMateusz Konieczny I reverted your edit because you made several edit based on misconception that only tags described in OSM wiki are allowed.
32018-05-07 20:45:58 UTCmueschel This specific tag was only added due to a bug in the GoMap app that has been fixed meanwhile.
42018-05-07 20:49:45 UTCMateusz Konieczny Maybe I overreacted in this case - feel free to revert this edit if you think that it improves map.
57626490 by
mueschel		12018-04-18 18:39:35 UTCmarczoutendijk Any specific reason why you moved this tagging to a note? Did you read the discussion on the Dutch forum?
https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=60633
22018-04-19 08:19:02 UTCmueschel Hi,
it's a new tag that wasn't used before. I checked the wiki and wasn't able to find any description of it. I didn't find a discussion in the forums, but I also don't speak Dutch.

I'm perfectly fine with using the tag - you seem to have some discussion about it and if you add a description in ...
32018-05-07 20:11:30 UTCMateusz Konieczny Why you think that hiding "random tags" in notes improves anything? Nonsense useless tags should be deleted, mistagged info should be fixed.

Moving them to notes merely hides problem and accomplishes nothing - this kind of edit is as result harmful.
42018-05-07 20:18:55 UTCmueschel It's not hiding the information - in contrary, it makes it visible. JOSM shows it now as a special icon, and also iD can list it for the casual user you doesn't look in the list of all tags.
52018-05-07 20:28:03 UTCMateusz Konieczny What you mention may be achieved by adding "fixme=suspicious tags XYZ".

Moving weird tags to note makes nearly impossible to spot issue again.
58736763 by
mueschel		12018-05-07 20:05:54 UTCMateusz Konieczny it just makes them harder to spot and really fix! What is the point of that edit?
22018-05-07 20:17:09 UTCmueschel Would you please stop reverting the work of others without discussion? A 'description' tag is exactly the right place to list the amenities a park has to offer.
32018-05-07 20:26:21 UTCMateusz Konieczny "A 'description' tag is exactly the right place to list the amenities a park has to offer."

So why you moved them to note tag?
58769233 by
Mateusz Konieczny		12018-05-07 20:15:07 UTCmueschel This was not a 'mechanical edit'. I did it deliberately by hand. Undocumented tags are useless in OSM. And I'm very willing to communicate.
22018-05-07 20:24:59 UTCMateusz Konieczny "Undocumented tags are useless in OSM" - that is untrue. Frequently tags may be documented (I done it with many of them).
32018-05-07 20:25:21 UTCMateusz Konieczny "And I'm very willing to communicate." - and thanks for that!

22018-05-07 20:11:09 UTCmueschel There is a reason that currency:others=yes doesn't exist in the wiki. The only value is 'no', indicating that all currencies available are mentioned in the tags and none are missing.
32018-05-07 20:23:45 UTCMateusz Konieczny "There is a reason that currency:others=yes doesn't exist in the wiki."

mueschel		12018-05-07 19:59:25 UTCMateusz Konieczny What was point of this edit?

32018-05-07 20:09:01 UTCmueschel The tag 'visible_in' is not in use elsewhere and not defined anywhere. A note on the other hand is shown in all editors to make any other mapper aware of the problem. I just moved the existing information to a place visible to others.
42018-05-07 20:21:30 UTCMateusz Konieczny "is not in use elsewhere and not defined anywhere" and? See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Any_tags_you_like

note already existed, this tag only provided extra info

" note on the other hand is shown in all editors" - for start it is simply untrue.
58295618 by
mueschel		12018-05-07 19:54:24 UTCMateusz Konieczny Why you made this edit? Can you use edit description that explain why you made an edit?
22018-05-07 20:06:46 UTCmueschel There is no need for a new tag 'service_times:mass' - that's by definition 'service_times'.
32018-05-07 20:18:40 UTCMateusz Konieczny see https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2018-April/035869.html for explanation

Cheers, Jan
22018-05-01 18:45:11 UTCAstromath I'm not sure what waymark and control_numbers are. The sites I got the info from did not define them (re: websites I entered). Maybe ref could be used for them, but I don't know how many characters can be used for that field.
32018-05-02 09:09:19 UTCmueschel If you don't know what they mean, they should not be in OSM.

Btw, what is the source of this data? It's missing in the changeset. Is this data available under a license compatible with ODbL?
42018-05-02 19:08:59 UTCAstromath The data is from the 2 websites I added. Both are public websites.
52018-05-02 19:53:34 UTCmueschel These might be public, but the data can not be used for OSM - their terms of use contain "private, non-commercial" use and "attribution" needed.

All data you got from these sites must be removed.
62018-05-03 13:58:49 UTCAstromath Ok. Removed the parts that are "private" use and only left in the parts that are "obvious" when looking at it from the street. I also left in the sculptor because that should be found in any record, especially the library.

what does this way represent?

It doesn't have a valid tag. It's definitely not "landuse=residential". Is it a boundary?

Não é necessário definir o contorno da cidade, isso pode ser gerado automaticamente a partir das ruas.

Jan
22018-04-30 11:34:02 UTCjareklec Hi, I was also thinking about it, but according to this source <http://rawicz.e-mapa.net> is correct.

42018-04-30 11:57:23 UTCjareklec I apologize for the lack of focus, at this moment I corrected it, thanks for your attention.

it. Please have a look at the wiki about common tags.
Let us know in case you need help!

Jan
22018-04-29 15:03:45 UTCAshek Indeed, it indicates the total children/population of the mentioned area. Do you please suggest me how I can mention it. Thanks.
32018-04-29 15:16:38 UTCmueschel These are tags used in other places as well. At least the first two are also mentioned in the Wiki.

Total Population -> population
Total Household -> households
Total Children -> population:children

I don't know what the other tags mean, so I can't make a suggestion.

22018-04-28 17:28:01 UTCJames69 Yes the White Rabbit is an upscale up-cycled resale shop
32018-04-28 17:47:00 UTCmueschel Ok, how about shop=second_hand? This is the best I can come up with at the moment and at least is a rough description.
I would also add a description=* tag stating exactly what you just wrote.
If they focus on some special kind of work, a craft=* tag could be fitting as well.

kapsa		12018-04-25 14:37:33 UTCmueschel Hi,
could you explain this? What is a "lake trail" if it's not a path to walk on?
22018-04-25 16:04:05 UTCkapsa You are right but the earlier description referred to this segment as a "footpath" which I believe is something next to a road while a lake trail has a nature element. There is a tree covered trail all around this lake.
32018-04-25 16:39:19 UTCmueschel It was "highway=footway" - this is not related to a sidewalk (on the side of a road).
See the description in the wiki:

It's just a generic tag for a path which is mainly intended for pedestrians.

Aber ein highway=secondary wird nicht zum highway=path nur weil es eine Baustelle ist.

52018-04-16 12:27:27 UTCTomas Straupis Well we (Lithuanian mappers) are discussing it in pubs... I've added a lot of river/stream ways to connect water basins, this introduced duplicate names, so I'm looking for the ways to solve this. Alternative would be to remove waterway=river/stream tag altogether. Or removing name tag.
As per wiki...
62018-04-16 12:37:13 UTCmueschel I'm not a user of river and stream data, so I can't say something specific. Only thing I know is that OSM is an international project and all changes to tagging need to be discussed openly with everybody involved. A pub is not the right place, that's why we have the Wiki, whether you like it or not....
72018-04-16 13:05:41 UTCTomas Straupis I have explained which problems I'm solving. I need other specific/practical problems to be able to adjust my decisions. This is the reason why I'm doing a change and waiting for a loooong time for other possible problems to rise.

I changed static_caravans to static_caravan because the plural wasn't in the database before you added it and the singular was already used 170 times.

Jan
22018-04-05 16:17:24 UTCCamcycleMatt I'm investigating some ideas for annotating problematic barriers installed on cycle routes that exclude people riding adapted cycles, tricycles or recumbent cycles. Hopefully this can eventually become a searchable database based on OSM.
32018-04-05 17:32:41 UTCmueschel "inclusive" is not actually a "speaking tag" - it could be anything. What is the exact width when you start using this tag? what about bicycles with trailers?

52018-04-03 11:47:35 UTCmueschel In iD geht das so weit ich weiß nicht. Mit JOSM ist es kein Problem, du kannst beliebig Daten in/aus lokalen Dateien speichern und laden, so dass du sie siehst, sie aber nicht auf dem Server landen.

the tag

We do have some
"observation = firewatch" in the database. Maybe you want to change your tag?

tteo98		12018-02-25 11:51:24 UTCmueschel Hi,
I saw that you added tags like "route_ref_7" in order to note the routes that use a bus stop. These tags are new and not used in other places. The common way is to make a list of routes, separated by ';' like:

route_ref = 1;23;24;34;56;78;245;...

Would you mind changing your tag...
22018-02-25 12:59:44 UTCtteo98 Hi,

I'm going to correct all the bus stops.

Jan

Yes, I did it on purpose. Its a university project and I need to add this tags. My teacher will delete the tags in a few weeks.
Ruben.
32018-02-15 14:02:48 UTCmueschel Well, this is bad advice by your teacher. The OSM database is not meant for such "private" information. Introducing new tags usually follows a defined process and discussion in the community. Please remember that this data now has been copied to thousands of databases world-wide and will e...
42018-02-15 14:05:59 UTCRubén Corral García Okay, it will be delete soon.
52018-02-21 10:49:24 UTCmueschel Hi,
could you ask your supervisor to contact me to clarify how to proceed with this?
In the meantime we have at least 20 different spellings of the "special tags" of your group in the database, which just doesn't help at all.

Cheers, Jan
22018-02-18 16:58:12 UTCalzyee I think that they should be deleted/ this edit reverted (if the node has not been changed since) because they appear useless / part of an import and the user has not made any other edits or comments as far as I can see.

Georgiysys		12018-02-17 11:28:59 UTCmueschel Hi,
could you check the tagging of these beautiful 3D-buildings?

There are 1332 objects with the tag "building_colour". This should be "building:colour"

Additionally, all the nodes are tagged e.g. as building, but these tags seem to belong to the ways only.
22018-02-17 11:50:09 UTCGeorgiysys I indicated the color to make out the appearance, is there any problem with using this tag?
32018-02-17 11:54:19 UTCGeorgiysys Or do you mean that there were points, if the points I deleted them, remained from the rough work, I did not see them in josm
42018-02-17 11:58:27 UTCmueschel Tagging the colour is fine. But spelling of the tag is wrong. Note the difference: "building_colour" and "building:colour" - '_' versus ':'.

The nodes I refer to are part of ways - that's correct. But they should not have tags themselves. For example this one:
https://www.op...
52018-02-17 12:24:44 UTCGeorgiysys building_color in my zhosm for some reason did not work or the changes are not visible, I now recheck, I need help and a lot :) I wanted to make the whole city in 3D,
62018-02-17 12:32:58 UTCGeorgiysys now on tried to change to building_color the color stopped showing up
72018-02-17 12:34:05 UTCGeorgiysys you have a completely decorated 3D object, I'll take examples from it?

22018-02-09 16:19:27 UTCwiuhighwayman Hi Jan,

that would be "oneway=-1".

luiswoo		12018-01-30 11:52:33 UTCmueschel Hi,
just a hint: you used the tag "bus = 10" to mark bus numbers. The usual tag for this is "route_ref".
And a question: what is the meaning of "shuttle_bus"? This key is new and hasn't been used in any other place.

Cheers, Jan
22018-01-30 12:30:39 UTCluiswoo В "route_ref" можно истолковывать множественные значения, как "route_ref=12b;15;95"?

shuttle_bus=share_taxi — забыл исправить ошибку.
Не знаю, нужно ли остановке публичного т...
32018-01-30 12:55:39 UTCmueschel Yes, route_ref can have multiple values.

I'm sorry, but I can't give a response to the rest - I don't speak Russian and google translate is not good enough for me to understand.
42018-01-30 12:58:21 UTCluiswoo У меня аналогичная проблема.

62018-01-30 14:08:23 UTCmueschel freeExec, a route is always the best solution. But as long as the route is not mapped, route_ref is a perfect source of information. It is used 170,000 times worldwide.
72018-01-30 14:22:19 UTCZverik luiswoo, ты не мог бы bus=*, share_taxi=*, shuttle_bus=* заменить на route_ref:bus=*, route_ref:share_taxi=* и т.п.? По вики, именно этот ключ используется для перечисления номеров маршрутов через остано...

22018-01-08 12:08:40 UTCmueschel Could well be.
I found the tag
"Sudecka = Beskidzka"
I assumed this was a simple error while copy-and-pasting. But it could be "name = Sudecka" as well (which I think makes more sense)

22018-01-07 15:54:26 UTCzzcolin I don't think it to be reasonable. I did notice the discussions regarding this, and I see that you took "destination:<something>:to" as an example of "ambiguities", but ":to" is just a proposed subtag; however, it is a widely followed convention to directly using ...

Warin61		12018-01-02 13:04:16 UTCmueschel Hi,
you used the key "gone:railway" for this railway. 'gone' is none of the usual lifecycle prefixes - If the rails have been removed, it should be "railway = razed", see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Demolished_Railway

Jan
22018-01-02 22:20:21 UTCWarin61 I agree 'gone: is not 'usual' - still thinking about it. I used this as a temporary hold for transfer of data to Open Historical Map (I hope).

'railway=razed' may only apply to track, not stations and other railway things. I think it is a poor tag! I would much rather have something like 'gone:'...
32018-01-02 22:24:48 UTCmueschel "razed:" is also quite common: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/razed%3Arailway#values

For these long-gone objects it might indeed be better to remove them completly, but others might disagree.
42018-01-02 22:47:16 UTCWarin61 "others might disagree" ... Yes .. 'they' will disagree! However if a good alternative is offered (such as OHM) then 'we' might get agreement, at least the vast majority? Fingers crossed.

razed: is not on the wiki .. probably because the vast majority would 'disagree' with it :)
52018-01-03 23:50:41 UTCWarin61 I have now copied this railway line to OHM .. and it is there nicely.

Sections of this line I have tagged 'ruined:' other sections 'nonexistent:' and the southern platform/station abandoned:

well, the Wiki specifically asks to use "destination:lang:en", to make clear it is a language.

You were right. There is no `start` or `end` key.

While I question those tags' applicability to this route in particular (`from` and `to` are the same stop), I'm going to update the rest of them to use the proper tags.
22018-01-02 18:20:14 UTCmueschel There is also the key 'via' to name intermediate stops.
32018-01-02 18:31:06 UTCNixillUmbreon Yeah, I've used that on various routes when it removes ambiguity from other routes of the same number that don't go the same way, for example 450 SB: Pontiac => State Fair vs 450 SB: Pontiac => State Fair via Royal Oak.

Pink Duck		12018-01-01 12:33:56 UTCmueschel Hi,
I found a strange tag on two ways here:
parking:condition:right:maxspeed= 30 mph
I hope parked cars don't move at all :-)
Could you check that?

E.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/250098973

Cheers, Jan
22018-01-01 15:37:29 UTCPink Duck Puzzling that, and rightly pointed out, so thanks. I've removed those curious tags from the two adjacent ways, given the existing speed limit is already 30 mph there (though due to change to 20 mph in April).

klain890		12018-01-01 11:36:25 UTCmueschel Hi,
I saw that you put the tag "name_water" on many water holes and pumps. This tag is not used in any other place yet and not interpreted by any software I'm aware of.
Shouldn't it be just "name"?

Jan
22018-01-01 11:45:56 UTCmueschel And, you added the tag "amenity:drinking_water=drinking water". This should be "amenity=drinking water".

Let me know if you need help fixing these issues.

the tag "for:addr:housenumber' is new. There is somebody in Russia who uses "post:housenumber": https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4436294626
You might want to use this tag as well?

Cheers, Jan
22017-12-31 13:22:40 UTCM!dgard Ha, good idea. I was on my phone so couldn't do a whole lot of research. amenity=letter_box and post:*=* are documented, but only in Russian. I think it'd be great to port this page to other languages! I don't understand Russian though. Do you?

I'll change the tagging of these letter boxes now.

in Gegenrichtung freigegebenen Radverkehr taggt man ja üblicherweise mit oneway:bicycle=*

Grüße, P.
22017-12-30 15:07:43 UTCmueschel Hi,
Hauptgrund für die Änderung war, dass sidewalk:left:oneway:bicycle neu war und sidewalk:left:bicycle:oneway schon benutzt wurde. (insgesamt 30x left und right zusammen)

Übrigens, wenn man A nach B ändert und dann damit ar...
42017-12-30 15:56:26 UTCmueschel Wenn ein Tag neu eingeführt wird, stimme ich dir zu. Hier ist es allerdings anders: In der Datenbank gibt es z.B.

62017-12-30 16:16:04 UTCmueschel Diese Frage solltest du nicht mir sondern den Mappern stellen, die diese Tags seit mindestens 5 Jahren benutzen. Aber wie bereits gesagt, die Reihenfolge "key:transportation_mode:subkey" ist nichts besonderes, sondern so üblich.

32017-12-28 19:50:39 UTCmueschel Hi,
nicht ganz richtig. Der Key ist dabei
"taxi:conditional" und der Wert ist "yes @ destination". D.h. das :conditional steht an der falschen Stelle und das '=' muss weg.

Außerdem ein beliebter Fehler in iD: Pass auf, dass du ein Tag nicht zweimal einträgst.

32017-12-29 01:19:41 UTCCarnildo If I'm understanding the meaning of the "County Road" tag correctly, I think the best thing to do would be to use the "ref" tag with a value of "CR ###", similar to how state highways get "ref" tags such as "WA 21".

Aaron Opdyke		12017-12-23 10:44:35 UTCmueschel Hi,
what is the meaning of "HH:number"? It looks like it is a copy of "addr:housenumber"?

Thanks for explaining,
Jan
22017-12-23 10:51:14 UTCAaron Opdyke The barangays within the Municipality of Carigara use a system of numbering households. They don't represent an "official" address, thus they aren't included in the "addr:housenumber" tag as some households also have a formal address street number (which can be different than the...
32017-12-23 10:57:27 UTCmueschel This sounds like a "ref" tag can be used for this - it's an local reference number of the buildings. It should be made more specific by adding a subkey like "ref:XYZ". Maybe "ref:Carigara:HH"?
42017-12-23 11:04:30 UTCAaron Opdyke That would work. I'll change the tags. It will work well to use the barangay name instead of the municipality name (Carigara) as the numbering is actually at the barangay, not municipal level (e.g. "ref:Tagak:HH"). Thanks for the catch and recommendation!
52017-12-23 11:08:27 UTCmueschel Thinking about it, I would even remove the city name from the tag and use "ref:HH". This means, you have a common tag for all such household numbers and the barangay they belong to can be found in the addr:place tag.
62017-12-23 11:19:54 UTCAaron Opdyke Ya part of the issue I'm having is that some households are technically part of a different barangay than the boundaries they fall within.

it looks like something went wrong with this import - there are many tags that don't follow our common tagging scheme, like the ones listed below. Also, the source "Bing" you give for this data can't be right. What is the source and how is it licensed?

32017-12-23 10:53:33 UTCmueschel The more appropriate tag would be "landcover = trees", but the geometry looks rather precise.
The amount of overlapping buildings has to be fixed, though.

According to https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:building%3Dbungalow, it should be building=bungalow, not building=bunglow (sic: missing "a").

It would be great if you used the correct spelling for your future edits.
22017-12-05 11:21:10 UTCmueschel The same holds for 2700 buildings with the tag "builing:levels" which should be "building:levels".
And there are buildings mapped twice, e,g, around 7th Commercial Street.

22017-12-02 11:39:06 UTCmueschel I think these points should be deleted - they are imported from some unknown source, unknown license. The tagging is not properly done and simple retagging to e.g. place=village does not really help data quality.
