Per-dataset tags #92

Closed stephend closed 12 years ago

HamishB commented 12 years ago

In general I think this could be handled simply by a bit of discipline on our behalf. Which still-to-be-uploaded layer is this an issue for? (for the Chathams we used different tagging for exotic_poly IIRC)

thanks, Hamish B

This is for NZOpenGPS roads. I'm going to need to do something with tags: but I'm leaning towards just splitting the 'Default Tags' into LINZ and NZOpenGPS versions, and making sure the layers for each source have unique names. Once I've got the NZOpenGPS roads in, I'll update this.

would it help to get the road_cl and track_cl layers for the Antarctic uploaded sooner rather later?

using a different layer name for the NZOpenGPS data seems like a very good idea.

stephend commented 12 years ago

road_cl and track_cl for the Antarctic are completely separate. Doesn't matter if they're done first, after or at the same time.

OK: the solution I ended up with is 'groups' that layers and datasets can be assigned to. At the moment, there's two: linz and nzopengps, they can be managed through the admin interface. These groups can have their own tags. There are still default tags, as well.

Meanwhile, LINZ:source_version is set from the dataset's new 'version' field.
