Re: [openrailwaymap] [Talk-transit] Tag railway=station on ways and Wiki

100% agree with Nzara. Important to have ONE point for station, and the mapper can better decide where this is then an algorithm. nounours > Am 19.05.2016 um 07:28 schrieb Nzara <nzaraosm(a)gmail.com&gt;: > > Hello Mauro, > > concerning your questions > >> Other question that came up was "why is it so important for that node >> to be unconnected with the railway track?" >> > >> Can someone help me to know exactly why it's better tagging a >> "railway=station" with a node only? > > I prefer the passengers view of a station or halt. If we will meet "at the station" where are you expecting to find me? This is the position, I usualy use for placing the railway=station node, definitly not on a track. The track carries nodes like public_transport=stop_position. Putting 'station' on a building or even a larger area leaves it to the renderer or any other data consumer to guess the center of the station from passenges view. > > Cheers > Nzara > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Talk-transit mailing list > Talk-transit(a)openstreetmap.org > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-transit _______________________________________________ Talk-transit mailing list Talk-transit(a)openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-transit
