Hi everyone,
I’d like to propose a minor but city-wide automated edit in the area of Plzeň (Czech Republic).
Goal:
To add the following tags to all highway-type ways (streets, footways, paths, cycleways, etc.) within the administrative boundary of the city of Plzeň:
dog=leashed
dog:description=Na území města Plzně je zakázáno volné pobíhání psů. Výjimku tvoří místa k tomu určená, např. psí loučky
Reason:
This is based on a municipal regulation that prohibits unleashed dogs in public areas of the city (https://vyhlasky.plzen.eu/soubor/367). Specific areas (dog parks etc.) are exempt, and can override this tag locally.
Plan:
- Area: administrative boundary of Plzeň (admin_level=8, name=Plzeň).
- Target: all ways with
highway=*
within that area. - Method: Using Overpass query in JOSM, manually checking each batch before upload.
- I will run the edit gradually, grouped by districts, and stop on any serious feedback.
- Changesets will be marked with
comment
,source
, andmechanical=yes
tags.
OSM username: Thisik
I will perform the edit from this account.
Please let me know your feedback, concerns, or if there’s any local consensus I might have missed.
If there is disagreement, I’ll gladly withdraw or modify the plan.
Thanks for your time!
