Gondola vs Cable_car
- We really ought to have gondola distinct from cable_car. They are very different types of lift, and well worth marking differently on maps. You can see from tagwatch that gondola is already in widespread use. It would be great to have it properly documented and rendered. Daveemtb 16:39, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
- I changed the description. Gondola is already in widespread use so I don't think it needs any vote. It would be good to have keys for maximum occupancy of cable_cars, and also wether taking bicycles into the gondola/cable car is allowed. I think bicycle allowed should be default for cable cars, but not allowed default for gondolas and chairlifts.
direction of the track
How is the best choice? Up or down? --wiso 11:08, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
- I tend to put the track up as thats the way you tend to sit / ride on them. Elwell 21:18, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
No people allowed
I would suggest something like aerialway=goods for a cablecar that only carries goods but where no people are allowed. These usually look like normal cablecars, perhaps they’re smaller and don’t have a roof. Usually there is only one car instead of two. --Candid Dauth 13:33, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
Aerialway Summer operation - HOWTO?
I would like to tag aerialways that operate during summer to distingush them from those that only operate during winter (that is the majority here). Any hints how this can be done? aerialway:operation=summer maybe?
zip lines
There are some different values for similar things: Tyrolean_traverse, canopy, zip_line, zipline. (Source: Taginfo). Also flying_fox could be imaginable. There should be just one, I think. Although we are talking about very different cases of zip lines: in the forest at the height of the canopies - and small zip lines on children's playgrounds. IMHO we should no make any different values for these cases: The length of the way and a possible height tag show what the case is.--Geogast 11:29, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
lift for snowtubes
I've tagged a lift in Sankt Andreasberg which is for snow tubes but I'm not shure which is the best tag for it so I took rope_tow. Ogmios 07:54, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
