Greetings all. I think toilets and presence of drinking water should be
separate pieces of information easily obvious to any user. While all campsites
with drinking water will have toilets, the reverse is often not true in NSW.
I was at one last weekend - fairly large and popular ( room for 30 or 40 tents
and vans), within 2 hours drive from sydney, and it had no water except for
unreliable tank water. ( plenty last weekend lol).

This information is of interest to cycle tourists particularly, who need to
manage water supplies quite carefully. It is depressing to get to the campsite
only to realise you have to cycle another 10ks to get water. So I would suggest
the second tier be basic plus toilets without an assumption about water. I do
realise cycle tourists are only a small user group and will probably use other
more detailed resources though.
Cheers Adrian

Whatever way it is cut there is a 'responsiblity', and I'd rather see the
'rules' and have the mapper make the choice from local knowledge rather
than pass it to some remote person who can only judge it from a yes/no
answer.
I'm in also in favour of subjective decisions, when we need a subjective
decision, to be made close to the source.
However, there are some tags that simply aim to group objective facts by
applying a ruleset to them. From the description this looks like one of
those cases. I look to see what amenity a campsite has, look up the
proposal, and decide on a category to assign it to. I can choose to list
the amenities too if I want.
People might misinterpret the ruleset, and meanwhile, we are losing hard
data about the amenities.
Is there supposed to be a subjective step that I'm missing? That is you
look at all the amenity, and make a judgement call on the category?
Ian.
