[OSM-talk-be] zone30/50/70 vs Bebouwde kom/Agglomération/Built-up area

[Jo]

I got the urban/rural from the tagging or talk mailing list. I have never
seen built-up area as a tag on OSM. I did see city limit, but personally I
always heard city limitS. So even though I am not entirely happy with
urban, it's short and to the point and apparently it's already used
extensively in Germany and to a lesser extent in Finland.

The BE: prefix makes sense, as the rules inside built-up areas differ  even
between EU countries.

OK, I see your point. Someboy using a geospatial database can find out
these roads are in Belgium with an (expensive?) query. People who only have
the tags available can't, though.
