There's a Sports Pitch (Boules) in the middle of a Pedestrian Area "Weighbridge Place" Is there any way to make these show up on the map? Thanks asked 22 Mar '13, 13:54  OffTheChart edited 22 Mar '13, 18:22  mmehl |

Hello There, One answer is to make a multipolygon of the pedestrian area (outer), with the pitch as an inner area, each will then render separately. As for the hedge area, you can tag a way or area, as barrier=hedge, but as a hedge is a linear feature I think even with the area tagged only the linear feature will be rendered as a hedge. So the hedge is showing as expected. Regards Bernard answered 22 Mar '13, 14:32  BCNorwich edited 22 Mar '13, 14:34 |
You have tagged the pitch only Also, to see other OSM objects that are tagged in a certain manner, you can use http://overpass-turbo.eu/ as a query tool, which was very helpful for me in answering this question. Load a key-value-query, add the desired combination and then choose an area where you expect to see similar objects, and then see how they are tagged. I made a key-Value-query for leisure=pitch on the ruhr area of germany, and then clicked through some of those, and found one that said "boules" as sport. answered 22 Mar '13, 15:50  gormo edited 22 Mar '13, 15:58 |

Thanks, got the pitch sorted, now I understand the basics of multi-p's. The hedge area is showing as an outline, not filled in, but better than it was!
Thanks all.
