Hi all,

Just a quick question, I was looking to get all the crossing points 
along the 'Irish' border.

Most of them seem to be mapped with nodeĀ  ( name="Border NI/ROI" ) which 
is good

Others are not tagged at all, or tagged with slight variation so I was 
going to edit these to match, no problem.
My concern is that others are tagged differently eg name="N1/A1 Border 
Crossing", so I am not too sure what to do here, is it best to have 
these be consistent, or should this consistency be based on type rather 
than name ?

Just wondering what you thoughts are.

Regards,

keith

PS

On a related note, I created this video composed from 17,117 satellite 
images tracing the path of the border as extracted from OSM.
