Give lower priority to parcel lockers #4992

Open maro-21 opened 4 months ago

maro-21 commented 4 months ago

Parcel lockers have dominated the map, there are a lot of them and they cover up more important things on the map, such as bus stops, shops and restaurants. My suggestion is to give them a lower priority so they don't cover up other POIs.

Here it covers up the name of the stop: https://osm.org/#map=19/51.14615/16.87658

Here it covers up the name of the restaurant: https://osm.org/node/5585928621#map=19/51.15842/16.89796

I think there will be plenty of such examples.

The problem stems from the fact that somewhat questionably ref is included in the label as well as from the unexplainable Polish practice to include the brand-specific term for parcel locker (e.g. Paczkomat, Pop Box, One Box, Pickup Station) in the rendered brand tag, which together lead to labels that span across two or often three lines :/

This certainly aggravates the issue. But ultimately this is another manifestation of #3880, and there is no simple / agreed solution within the current rendering framework.

I think this is mostly covered by #4629, #234, #3880 and #3635.

Yes, long names is one thing. However, I think rendering brand + ref is not limited only to Poland but will be the same worldwide.

What I meant here is not only long names but also icons which can be seen even on zoom 18.
