Christoph,

http://www.mappa-mercia.org/cgi-bin/naptanmerger.wsgi/ Looking good :-)

A few comments on how this might work. Suggestions only for you to think
about and to elicit comments from others.

Green would show a stop that's got merged data, i.e. it's a done deal and no
further work is required. To flag this as green you would check for:

highway=bus_stop
The presence of the naptan:atcoCode key
naptan:unverified=yes tag is no longer present
route_ref tag is present

Orange would be one step down where one or more of the above are false
except for the following specific cases:

Yellow (or some other colour) would be a NaPTAN imported node which
contains:
no highway=bus_stop tag
The presence of the naptan:atcoCode key
naptan:unverified=yes tag is still present

Blue (or some other colour) would be a node which has highway=bus_stop but
no naptan tags indicating that its OSM suryeyed data alone.

Red, to denote a naptan node that has no physical presence on the ground and
no known use as a bus stop. This would be a node containing:

no highway=bus_stop tag
naptan tags present
physically_present=no tag present

Thoughts?

Cheers

Andy
