Hi
The disadvantage of using extended points is that none are findable.
I've had trouble with 0x2b (Lodgings) points showing or not on different devices
(eTrex HCx & eTrex 30x) and software and some subtype# not being findable on
different devices.
HCx has Lodgings (0x2b) "Find" categories:
0:Other,1:Hotel/Motel,2:Bed & Breakfast Inn,3:Campground/RV Park,4:Resort
and finds 5:Other,...
30x adds 5:Campground,7:"Sporting & Instructional"
and doesn't show subtypes 3 or 6
I've resorted to generating 2 points with different subtypes for some.
This is my usage of 0x2b:
amenity=shelter & shelter_type=basic_hut
[0x2b06 resolution 24 default_name 'Shelter']
tourism=alpine_hut [0x2b07 resolution 24]
tourism=bed_and_breakfast [0x2b02 resolution 24]
# eTrex Legend & 30x use different codes for campsite, have both!
tourism=camp_site [0x2b03 resolution 24]
[0x2b05 resolution 24]
tourism=caravan_site [0x2b03 resolution 24]
[0x2b05 resolution 24]
tourism=chalet [0x2b02 resolution 24]
tourism=guest_house [0x2b02 resolution 24]
tourism=hostel [0x2b02 resolution 24]
# Have both hotel &| restaurant POIs
tourism=hotel | tourism=motel {set tmp:stopMopUp=yes}
[0x2b01 resolution 24 continue with_actions]
tourism=lean_to [0x2b05 resolution 24 default_name 'Lean-to']
tourism=wilderness_hut [0x2b07 resolution 24 default_name 'Wilderness hut']
tourism=resort [0x2b04 resolution 24]
