#24114 new enhancement

[patch] Validate location:transition=yes as incompatible with line_management=termination — at Version 5

Description (last modified by francois.lacombe)

Hello

Mixing incompatible tagging line_management=termination and location:transition=yes is becoming a significant practice (2 540 occurrences).
Some mappers may confuse a termination with a (power) line connected to an underground cable.

Is it possible to add a validation rule that warns about this erroneous combination and asking to clarify to remove location:transition or change line_management?

Wiki is clear that line_management=termination shouldn't be used in combination with location:transition=yes

Best regards

Hello Francois!

Thanks for the patch. You requested replacing line_management=termination with line_management=transition in these cases, but I don't see that change in the uploaded patch. Do you still want this adjustment and it just didn't make it in, or is it no longer needed?

Good morning Gaben!

Indeed, I wondered if it was still needed because such situations are confusing. We actually don't know if the line actually stops or if it transitions with the wrong line_management value.
We would like the mapper to check himself and clarify.

I will edit the description to remove this replacement.
