Power validation rules update

Keywords: power, presets, validation Cc:

Description (last modified by Don-vip)

Hi,

Due to recently power presets update, this ticket aims to provide updated guidelines regarding the validation of user inputs with these keys.
This comes after some objects have been broken by non-knowledgable users (substation on open poly-line, power terminal in the middle of a power way and so on...)

Here are the valid features associated with the main power keys, got from the up to date wiki

Tag (wiki) Valid features Preset object type validator rule
Tag:power=plant area, relation
Tag:power=generator node, area not needed
Tag:power=cable way not needed
Tag:power=line way ✔ Done.
Tag:power=minor_line way not needed
Tag:power=tower node ✔ Done.(for unclosed ways only)
Tag:power=pole node
Tag:power=terminal node Not in Preset, see #12297 -
Tag:power=portal node, way not needed
Tag:power=insulator node, way not needed
Tag:power=catenary_mast node Not in Preset, see #12297 -
Tag:power=transformer node ✔ Done. ✔ Done.
Tag:power=switch or Tag:power=pole+switch=yes or Tag:power=tower+switch=yes node not needed
Tag:power=substation node, area not needed (area style not closed warning for unclosed ways already there)
Tag:power=converter node, area not needed (area style not closed warning for unclosed ways already there)
Tag:power=compensator node, area not needed (area style not closed warning for unclosed ways already there)
Tag:power=insulator node, way ✔ Done. not needed
Tag:building=transformer_tower node, area not needed (area style not closed warning for unclosed ways already there)

Presets may be updated according to this table and I suggest to prompt a validation warning when such keys are used on different features than the given ones.

It may be great to update current validation rules :

Rule Update Progress
A power support is missing on a power line/power minor_line Add Tag:power=portal, Tag:power=terminal, Tag:power=insulator as valid supports. Furthermore, a power line/minor_line can be directly connected to a Tag:power=transformer. ✔ Done.

And add a few more :

Rule Description Progress
A Tag:power=cable without Key:location A power cable is a feature which must be set in a dedicated location such as indoor, underground or undersea (non exhaustive list). Any power cable object without the location key may show up a validation warning. ✔ Done. Wiki says that location=* is optional and that underground is the assumed default value for power=cable. However 5290 out of 7963 cables have the location tag (http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/dMQ). So add this as info level.
Crossing between road, railroad, path, landuse, waterways and power ways Power lines may be long objects crossing through country and mappers can easily place nodes in common with roads or landuse areas. A validation error should be prompted to reduce the amount of such problems.
Missing voltage as important information Adding Key:voltage to Tag:power=line, Tag:power=minor_line, Tag:power=cable, Tag:power=generator, Tag:power=transformer or Tag:power=plant is a really useful information and miss this key should prompt an info validation message. Voltage is currently one main threshold to distinguish line from minor_line. ✔ Done.

These lists can be improved according to the experience of contributors and developers

In 9494/josm:

see #12386 - allow power=insulator on ways in preset; add validator warnings for power=tower on unclosed way and power=line on node

comment:6 by Klumbumbus, 8 years ago

We don't need validator rules for cases, which are nearly non existent in the database. This would only extend the validation time without a gain.

Thank you Klumbumbus for the edits so far

Regarding power=transformer on ways/areas : mappers really shouldn't use this.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:power%3Dtransformer

The 8944 instances will slowly be converted to node (sometimes in the middle of a building=* object)
Example : https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3342939725
That's why a validation info or warning may really be welcome to help to down transformers as a way to 0.

In 9500/josm:

see #12386 - remove support of power=transformer on ways and add validator warning. add validator info for some power features without voltage, adjust presets, integrate separate power.mapcss in combinations.mapcss

OK, done.


I limited the missing voltage info to plants/generators with generator:output:electricity/plant:output:electricity

Ok, the rest are java tests.

This is definitely right, thank you to have noticed that

Replying to Klumbumbus:

Does this mean that the validation is hardcoded in Java instead of mapcss validator files ?

Yes. And that I'm not able to write Java code :)
