Add field bridge:name=* and tunnel:name=* #1273

Wiki: bridge:name taginfo tunnel:name taginfo These fields are used to record the names of bridges and tunnels on highways, railways, and waterways. Many mappers write the names of bridges and tunnels on the road names because they do not see these field.

@SteveLz can you please add more context to your PR following the PR template that is drafted in https://github.com/openstreetmap/id-tagging-schema/pull/1239/files Thanks

No, please please no.

bridge:name is not a good tagging, bridge name should go on man_made=bridge object in name key rather than some unusual tags that is just pointless complexity

We may need to be consistent with the bridge:ref that already exists in the id-tagging-schema.
The area of a tunnel is difficult to verify, and it is more common for mappers to use tunnel:name instead of drawing an area of indeterminate shape.
Compared to writing the names of bridges and tunnels in bridge:name and tunnel:name, it is even more unacceptable to change the name of highways, railways, and waterways to bridges and tunnels. We need to remind people to use man_made=bridge instead of rejecting the tag.

unusual tags

Does this mean that the number of named man_made=bridge is slightly less than bridge:name?

pointless complexity

For places where the bridge lines have not yet been fully identified and the railways have not yet been fully double-tracked, mapping the bridge area is indeed a labor-intensive micro-mapping. This is again difficult to accomplish for places where up-to-date imagery is not yet available.

note that I have not commented at all about tunnel:name

1) number of objects where their name is tagged on another object rather in name tag is low compared to usage of name tag in general

2) note that bridge:name is counted multiple times in many cases for a single bridge

These tagging styles aren’t mutually exclusive, are they? I’ve often tagged both since the redundancy didn’t seem to be that harmful.

For what it’s worth, #215 would also mitigate some of the tendency to overload name=*. (Hopefully you don’t look at the date on that PR and despair for this PR’s prospects. 😬)
