The answer of course is when it is not a signpost but a tree, telegraph pole, etc. Is there a method to record the type of construction to which a sign (especially rambling route direction indicator signs) is attached to. It would be helpful if map users, who are lost, could see on the map the type of construction a sign is attached too. Signposts are far easy to see in the landscape than trees! asked 15 Dec '11, 05:40 dcp |
Having searched the wiki, there doesn't seem to be any suggestion for such a tag though information=guidepost seems to be suitable for the signs itself. Because of that I searched taginfo for the word guidepost and there is one use of guidepost=tree and a small smattering of uses of guidepost:material , guidepost_type and guidepost:type I would suggest picking whichever one of those you think most suitable for now, and if anything gains more widespread adoption in the future they can always be updated. answered 15 Dec '11, 09:08 EdLoach ♦ |
