The tagging tries to be compatible with the "de facto" tags and values used in OSM, to benefit the most from current and future compatible software. But instead of an "open tagging" approach, all tags are unambiguously defined in the documentation after being discussed and agreed by the community. @@ -87,7 +87,7 @@ The individual datasets and the planet file are distributed as **PBF** files. ### Numbering In order to merge all the datasets into one coherent database, unique IDs are required. The merge script takes care of it before merging all datasets. -All ID's on YAOM can change.
