Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - parking=storage: additional values for key parking

You never can do it fully correct:

   - The breakfast restaurant in a two-star hotel just for residents is an
   amenity
   - A restaurant in a five-star hotel has to be present to qualify the for
   five stars, just like a gym, so it is an amenity, although you have to pay
   separately for the service
   - Gyms and restaurants are also standalone businesses, in that case shop
   would be more logical
   - What about the five-star hotel also serving non-residents?

In the case of vehicle parking it is a standalone business and not
something you expect to be part of a larger business, so shop is most
appropriate

Across the big street is a driving range.

Re: [Tagging] Practice pitch?

2015-02-22 Thread Brad Neuhauser
Personally I'd probably include leisure=pitch. Maybe for some people, the
batting cage is the game? :)

I think baseball=batting_cage makes sense (like golf's driving range). The
golf example doesn't make clear whether it'd be best to include the sport
tag too. I'm inclined to include sport=baseball too, then one query could
get baseball diamonds as well as batting cages.

Cheers,

And this will bring up the issue of retagging eventually.  Re-tagging is,
as someone here recently said, often seen as akin to defecation.
However two other tags seem to have a quite specific meaning here, and
folding everything into one tag can help
to build router and app support.

I think the wooden portages he refers to are a series of wooden rollers

 What about the five-star hotel also serving non-residents?
This is a good case question - but the overwhelming majority of restaurants in 
the world - probably 99.9 percent of restaurants are shops - not some amenity 
for a hotel - so it feels really weird having it in the amenity space.

I think the hotel restaurant is the exception that proves the rule:

All true restaurants accept money for food, so they are all shops - they just 
have access restrictions. if it is a place you sit down and they give you food 
in exchange for money, it is a restaurant. The amenity for the hotel is room 
service. If it is a room where you eat your lunch, it is a break room.

I don’t think it matters if it is part of the hotel or not, as long as it is 
named and it is accessible to the public or customers. the operator is the 
hotel,  but the sign on the street level says “restaurant and people would tag 
a point in that section of the hotel building area to indicate the presence of 
a restaurant. if the restaurant at the 2 star is named, and there is a sign out 
front, then it is a shop. if it is a breakfast nook next to the front desk with 
a box of corn flakes and a danish, it might be something else. 
(Amenity=meal_corner?)

Maybe there should be a “hospitality=*” top level key so we could set some 
basic amenities of the hotel or same that way - and leave restaurants to actual 
shops who offer food for money - even if it is private (an army base with a 
mcdonlads, a private dining club, a guests only restaurant in a hotel, etc). 

hospitality:breakfast=7:00 to 9:00  (whatever the access restriction theme is)  
— for the “breakfast service” which is a Danish in a bag and a cup of orange 
juice
hospitality:gym=yes
hospitality:pool=indoor

because it it is impossible to map out most tall tower hotels, and covering 
amenity points all over a hotel outline is not really useful, and listing more 
than one amenity on a hotel object (which are usually just points, like a gym 
and a restaurant) is impossible because it is all in the amenity space!
 

the gym is an amenity and a shop - just like the storage we are discussing. I 
think it is bad to have all gyms in amenity, but we should still me able to be 
able to classify it as an amenity for point tagging in larger facilities  
(where it truly is an amenity of a facility) 

If there is some modifier to put on a business to say “this is a business built 
around the amenity=*”, that might work, but I’d prefer to have separate shop=* 
or business=* tag - as the weight room at a high school and a local gym are two 
very different things - one is a business you search for, and the other is an 
amenity of the much larger facility. 

maybe I’m misunderstanding something fundamental about tagging, or the way 
access works, or the way the data is parsed - but not being able to tag “shop 
foo” a “shop” while being able to tag “shop bar” a “shop” is really 
counterintuitive - how many people keep tagging in OSM once they make an 
account? This is part of the reason that is so low. 

so, so many businesses are basic shops selling things or services to people - 
probably less than 5% run into these issues - the world is full of well defined 
shop, weather in a mall, on a street, or even on the side of the road a s a 
vegetable stand.  most of them are straightforward about directly offering 
services for money.

 In the case of vehicle parking it is a standalone business and not something
