Hi,
I'm just updating part of LearnOSM
(http://learnosm.org/en/coordination/remote-tracing/), and need to
clarify which is the correct tag for a stream, river or other feature
that is only present for part of the year. My initial understanding was:
seasonal=yes as per http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:seasonal
But I started altering this a little while ago due to a conversation on
this mailing list, and was using
intermittent=yes as per http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:intermittent
However, Highway Tag Africa
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Highway_Tag_Africa#Seasonal_roads
goes with seasonal=yes
I don't mind which we go with, but it would be good if we advocated the
same one, although I'm sure software writers, GIS experts and map makers
can easily cater for either tag.
Regards
