ogr2osm translation

ogr2osm was used to convert the county park data to OSM. The translation script used is shown below:

import string

def translateAttributes(attrs):
    if not attrs: return

    tags = {}
    fixme = []

    tags['operator'] = 'Fairfax County Park Authority'
    tags['leisure'] = 'park'

    # Assemble the name (not everyone should have ' Park', check each one
    # (Especially golf courses, and 'site's
    if attrs['PARK_NAME']:
        tags['name'] = string.capwords(attrs['PARK_NAME']) + ' Park'
    else:
        fixme.append('park missing name')

    if attrs['PREG']:
        tags['fcpa:preg'] = attrs['PREG']

    if attrs['TMP_NAME']:
        fixme.append('has temp name "%s"' % attrs['TMP_NAME'])

    if fixme:
        tags['fixme'] = '; '.join(fixme)

    return tags
