<tt>The main thing is that people often refer to "Talstation" and
"Bergstation" but this information is not machine-readeable but
mostly encoded in the names of the stations. My goal ist to make
this machine-readeable because it almost all cases people can
refer to it even if they do not know the station's name. It's
obvious what's meant in almost every case what I mean when I say
"Bergstation Mutteralmbahn" [1] even if the station's name doesn't
say so [2]. So let's put this into machine-readeable tags to
enable applications to solve a problem not for specialists but for
the general map purpose we're building.<br>
<br>
In my opinion we did have the right discussion and have a very
good proposed definition with easy values that people with a basic
understanding of english can understand. Do you agree?<br>

<p>It seems we can't even agree on what question to ask an
"expert". @dktue I think you started this discussion... What was
your intention at the time? Was it "how do we identify
top/bottom stations on a cable car"? If you ask an "expert" you
might get an answer involving the project numbers for the build
phase, or the serial numbers of the pylons. Let's stop looking
for even more solutions until we have clearly defined the
problem. Otherwise you will end up with 100 different
"solutions" and an argument about which is best. If it's about
tagging the stations as upper/mid/lower according to their
altitude and topological location, then we are there already;
you should prepare a tagging proposal and put it to the vote.</p>

<p>And bear in mind the values should ultimately be meaningful to
a normal person, not just to a ski lift engineer, and to people
with limited English (so using French/German/Italian
nomenclature for example would not be helpful).</p>

<p>Maybe (as always here) we are too few specialists on this
list to find the right values. I know of two forum funivie.org
and remontées-mécaniques.net that specialize in the field, but
in Italian and French. Does anybody know of a similar
community, but English speaking?<br>
Maybe we could have good advice and get a few new mapper's on
board.<br>
