Project objectives
The long term objective is a complete coverage of those buildings and ruins in OSM. Not only the buildings, ruins, and outlines but also the tourist infrastructure should be covered: Parking lots, roads and paths, museums and gastronomical facilities.
Steps
- Discuss and improve a common proposal to tag fortresses and castles, see historic=castle.
- New proposal for prehistoric fortifications and nearly vanished castles, see historic=archaeological site, site_type=fortification.
- Discussion for new tag historic=city_wall opposed to modern walls, see Proposed features/City_wall.
- Develop a new proposal for tagging of fortresses.
- Develop a table to gather fortifications for each country. It may be built like Template:map_status.
First try: Overview Castle.
