<p dir="ltr">I don't really like this. The problem isn't putting this tag on all existing stops. The problem is communicating this to non-members of this list.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I think openlinkmap and other data users should in the end know that operator="De Lijn"+ref=x0xxxx translates to the url <a href="http://mijnlijn.be/x0xxxx">mijnlijn.be/x0xxxx</a>.</p>
<p dir="ltr">It's easier to patch their software than to learn all mappers what to put in the url tag.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Just my opinion though.</p>

I asked the admins of openlinkmap if this is even possible, but I'm still waiting for a reply, of course. I was planning to wait for their answer to react to Wim's suggestion.<span><font color="#888888"><br>

I guess that would mean adapting openlinkmap specifically for <a href="http://mijnlijn.be" target="_blank">mijnlijn.be</a>. Is that a good idea?<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Ben<div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Hi,<br><br>Historically we have been putting the 6 digit serial number we found on the stops of De Lijn into ref. I would like to propose to move them to:<br><br>url=<a href="http://mijnlijn.be/x0xxxx" target="_blank">mijnlijn.be/x0xxxx</a><br>
<br>That way they would be a lot more useful on sites like openlinkmap:<br><br><a href="http://www.openlinkmap.org/?zoom=18&lat=50.87952&lon=4.69273&layers=B" target="_blank">http://www.openlinkmap.org/?zoom=18&lat=50.87952&lon=4.69273&layers=B</a><br>
<br>The link translates to a webpage with realtime information of the buses that serve the stop and it's very convenient to be able to click through on them with a smartphone, a tablet or even from the desktop.<br><br>
To avoid redundancy I wouldn't keep the number in ref anymore. It's quite specific to De Lijn, so somebody who wants to do something with those serial numbers, can just as well extract them from the url.<span><font color="#888888"><br>
