ready to merge. should be working but specs are failing. they were beforehand as well but maybe we need to fix them sooner or later.

Btw you can assign/close an Issue directly with your Pull Request by saying closes #78 But I can not really see how that closes the Issue... because now everything will just be called a 'Kreis' but IMO that's also wrong to call a kreisfreie Stadt 'Kreis' even if its better than Landkreis. So to really solve the Issue there has to be a distinction between all units that are kreisfrei and the units that are Kreis.. or am I wrong?

00Bock commented 6 years ago

no, 'Kreise' is regularly used to include both types e.g. at INKAR and BBSR. so please don't be so stingy :)

but I guess you are somehow right because it's not really an elegant solution. but I do not want to create a german-specific solution. one option would be to receive an entry from the districts table from a column called district_type and set default entry to district and update the values according to regional admin type. alternatively we can find a word which is global enough to include any type of district e.g. 'administrative Einheit'.

would also be good to address special needs like 'Region Hannover'.

that's not stingy, just wanted to ensure that the quality gets better. In fact I didn't know that with BBSR and INKAR. So please go ahead, I think it's a good solution. :+1:

One other thing, how do we want to treat this tool in the nearer future as we don't have any matsim expert anymore at the innoz?
