Missing natural data

Open Duke74 opened this issue 8 years ago • 7 comments

A lot of data from osm key:natural is missing: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:natural

For example I'm interested in :

  • [ ] valley
  • [x] cliff
  • [x] bare_rock
  • [x] scree
  • [x] ridge
  • [x] arete

Is it a choice not to include this in openmaptiles, to optimize the tiles size ? In this case should I use my own layers in order to add this data ?

That's a tricky question, we'll have to see how large our current tile sizes are and see if its feasible.

Will do ridge, arete, cliff and valley in a separate layer and PR.

@klokan , @jirik Btw, these features need to be added to the styles.

BTW ridge, arete, cliff and valley are mapped as linear features (not polygon) and only cliff is currently rendered by osm-carto.

natural=spring is also not currently included. I added it in my own fork to the POI layer. Is this something you're interested in a PR for?

What about adding other point natural values to the mountain_peaks layer? I'm specifically thinking of natural=spring and natural=saddle.

natural=mud and natural=dry_lake would also be nice to have. Large expanses of the Western United States are covered in one of these tags. It can be jarring when they’re missing from a map that otherwise shows wetlands and other natural features.
