Hi, Over a short distance a pedestrian way leads over een wooden pavement over water. So its a kind of bridge, but more like a road into a harbor or a dock. How to tag it general bridge or otherwise ? asked 29 May '12, 00:46  Hendrikklaas |
One Answer:
If it is a bridge, I would tag it as a bridge and maybe use one of the proposed or user defined values from https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:bridge other possible tags (based on your description) may be found on these pages https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dpier https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Harbour#Pier answered 29 May '12, 14:41  srbrook |
Hy Srbrook, A lot of info, but not correct in this case. They made a plank pier alongside a private piece of land between the property and the surrounding waters. And it is specific not ment to be used for mooring of not allowed ships on these waters since they placed a fence between the walking route and the water (to prevent kids to fall into the water).
@Hendrikklaas Whether or not you can moor a boat at it is entirely irrelevant to whether it is in fact a pier. That's handled with the
mooringtag.
