[OSM-talk] Square (Place, Platz,Piazza, Plaza, …)

[mbranco]

Thank you Daniel, quite good news! (I  didn't know your github link)
I'm sure in very few time we'll have thousands of squares (only in Italy
there are 30.000 of them).
We are already discussing this issue in the Italian mailing list [1], and as
soon as I'll report your answer mappers will start to do the job.

Also, to speed up the process I'd like to inform all interested people that
I've done some tests with guys of Osmose to report in their excellent site
all the (likely) Italian squares: to do this my script look for all osm
objects tagged with "name=piazza* ; in Italian language "piazza" is a very
specific word, so false positives are very few.
We'll be happy to do the same for other languages/countries, so that Osmose
will be able to assist more communities in the job.

Cheers,

  Marco
