That was our reasoning, in fact. On talk-it we also discussed depot areas where not only vehicles are stored; for example there may be maintenance buildings or other various pieces of equipment. I'm announcing the proposal ASAP, so we can discuss it there. richard Ciao, Simone ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

I've looked on taginfo there was only one use of bus_depot, so I assume it's being tagged differently, but not sure how. There was a short discussion about this in very recent times on the Italian discussion list: http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-it/2010-December/020608.html There seemed to be agreement, but nobody ever proceeded to make a proposal. I'll revive the discussion and ask for a proposal, if that's ok with you. Otherwise, feel free to start one yourself. Cheers Dave F.

Seems like a type of garage or parking lot, so perhaps it should be tagged like those. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

There was some discussion of this a few months back: http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2010-September/thread.html#4539 There seemed to be agreement for some sort of depot tag, but less agreement over whether it should be amenity=depot or highway=depot or landuse=depot etc. I think it is a quite different thing from parking, as it usually includes facilities for refuelling or repairing the buses etc. Plus there's roads depots which might also store tools, equipment, salt, gravel etc. landuse=garages also seems to be a much more specific thing, for individual garage buildings, probably rented/used by different people etc. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
