[OSM-talk] Mapping party suggestion for SOTM

[ce-test, qualified testing bv - Gert Gremmen]

Hi Aevar,

Most coffeshops do offer more than just beverages.
In general you are welcome to order:

Uitsmijter : 2 bread , ham and 2-3 eggs
Tostie: 2 bread  ham and cheese , grilled together
Broodje ....  : white or brown bread with any sliced meat or cheese (10's of choices)
Broodje gezond: Folded bread or baguette type of bread with ham chees salad tomatoe cucumber etc.
Broodje bal: Soft white bread, with a meatball in between (try this one !)
Broodje haring : Soft white bread with raw salty herring and onions


I do not think it makes sense of tagging the kind of food
offered. (but keep the list if you come to Amsterdam)

More interesting (for international SOTM-ers) might be to indicate what
coffeeshops also sell joints, weed and/or hashish !

May I suggest some tagging:

drugs=  ...

where the argument will be:

thai, orange bud, sneeuwwitje, dynamite, snowdevil, bubbles, AK-47, peace maker
turk, droomskunk, charras, temple Nepal, king Hassan, amnesia, purple power , Jamaica
and a whole lot more !!


Prices between 4 and 12 euro  / gram

A few months ago in some local news media a talking head claimed that
Amsterdam's Red Light District wasn't in central Amsterdam and
moreover that it didn't contain any Coffee shops, i.e. ones of the
type that'll sell you more than just beverages.

So of course I headed over to OSM to prove both of these to be
incorrect. Only to find to my disappointment that not only did the map
of Amsterdam not have an area (or even a POI!) for the Red Light
district, it also didn't have any sort of tagging schema for
aforementioned Coffee shops.

(Incidental after some searching around this is the best map I can
find showing those two features:
http://www.coffeeshop.freeuk.com/Map.html)

So here's hoping that SOTM visitors to Amsterdam will be able to
rectify this situation.

The problem of coming up with a tagging schema for POIs applicable to
these two categories I leave to you.
