Hi there, I am trying to map areas in the State of Kuwait. I have started in my area, but I had to stop to get some, best tagging methods. This is how I see the State of Kuwait, admin_level, being played out. Please help if you see a problem.
This is how address are in Kuwait: City or suburb name, Block number, street number. Examples: Jabriya, Block 8, Street 6, House 24 Jabriya, Block 7, Street 6, House 24These two houses are in the same suburb but different Blocks. My dilemma is that I am using Boundary Relation to map each Block, and then another boundary relation for the suburb using "boundary=suburb". What "boundary=*" should I use for the Block or neighbourhood? And should I assign an admin_level to the Block? I get a warning when in the relation I have "type=boundary" and no "boundary=*" asked 01 Apr '14, 23:34 Mohammad Asiri |
I am a bit confused about OSM objects in Kuwait dealing with boundary=* Because when going to the well-known webservice http://overpass-turbo.eu , zooming to Kuwait, using the wizard feature of that webpage, and entering there boundary=* I only get very few objects. Is this correct, or dou you have already mapped all the administrative structure of Kuwait in the OSM data? If yes: how did you do that in detail? via border lines and boundary relations? After getting clear about the relation structure, we can go on to find a solution for your concrete problem, I think. answered 04 Apr '14, 14:12 stephan75 |
