So I created a building polygon here (https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?editor=id#map=20/42.86023/140.70693) and gave the outline a name. When I review this object in JOSM I see the name, in iD I see the name but in Potlach 2 I cannot see the name. Is there a reason for this? thanks asked 06 Dec '15, 09:24  GavinX edited 08 Jan '21, 07:27  gerdami |
One Answer:
You choose to use the tag name:en instead of name for your building. name:en is the name in English (see localization). This seems to be fine in this case since the local language is non-English. As you can see, some tools can handle the missing default name and some can't. If you know the local name of the apartments then please add it, too. answered 06 Dec '15, 09:38  scai ♦ edited 08 Jan '21, 09:05 |
