Also consider removing name_1
since it is deprecated. And adding short_name
.
Would you consider a pull request on this if I made one?
@blackboxlogic : Do you have a source for name_1
being deprecated?
@Nakaner , @woodpeck : What do you think?
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Names#Deprecated_tags says that number suffixes are deprecated. I think that it would make sense to drop name_1.
name_1
comes from iD users using the raw tag editor in iD (not the presets). If a user added name=something
and then adds name=anything else
in a row below, the second name
is changed to name_1
automatically because keys are unique per OSM object. I think we should join the other editors (namely JOSM) which tell their users that they cannot use a key twice.
Is there anything I can do to help this forward?
I'm still hoping for your consideration on https://github.com/ltog/osmi-addresses/pull/119 -Alex
Regarding: https://github.com/ltog/osmi-addresses/blob/cdae6e10d809b10ff7ea456eee41922d90f87f48/osmi/FirstHandler.hpp#L122
I went looking for how you match
addr:street
to highways and was pleased that you use variations on thename
tag likeofficial_name
. Consider also including theref
tag which is "common for roads" (like "US 1") and when a name would only be duplicating the information in the ref=* tag, then the ref and noname=yes is appropriate.
