Hi,

I'm mapping a hospital close to me with quite a complex Shape. I've mapped all the different parts of it with building:part=yes and put it into a relation with the role=part. This relation (a) is of type=building. See: Relation a

Then I created a second relation (b) with the outline of all the parts but gave it the role=outer. Additionally I created a line that represents the hole of that building and gave it the role=inner. Here: Relation b

Eventually relation b becomes a part of relation a with the role=outline.

But it does not seem to work 100%. What am I missing here? I don't wanna mess around any more and thought I'd just ask. Google didn't rely help or I haven't found my exact problem.

(see my related post on reddit)

Thank you.

When a building is mapped with a multipolygon, the tags for the building as a whole go only onto the multipolygon relation, not on the outer way. So you should remove the building=hospital tag from w955078388. Apart from that, the mapping looks correct to me.

Also no need to use relations to map building parts, you can just rely on the geometrical relationships
