Abstract

The goal of {OSMproposals} is to provide reproducible datasets containing information about OpenStreetMap’s tagging proposals. It does so by querying and webscrapping OSM’s wiki via helper functions.

The package contains the following datasets, as well as associated metadata and functions to recreate them:

proposals: A data frame with 724 rows and 27 columns, containing all Approved, Rejected and Proposed tagging proposals from the OSM Wiki, as well as their associated metadata (run ?proposals to see its metadata).

proposals_votes: A data frame with 8487 rows and 4 columns, containing all the votes cast for every tagging proposal in proposals, generated by get_proposals_votes() (run ?proposals_votes to see its metadata).
