[OSM-talk-ie] Tagging of an area where Travellers live

2014-07-01 Thread tumsi

Hi all,

How do you map areas where Travellers live? Do you use special tags or 
only landuse=residential? I saw an area that is tagged with 
tourism=caravan_site. This seems wrong to me since this tag means a 
facility for tourists as also intended in the definition on the wiki 
page (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dcaravan_site). 
Tourists visiting a country by caravan can stay on a caravan site 
overnight or for some days and maybe find some facilities like 
electricity, waste disposal (also dirt water) or drinking water but less 
comfort than using a camp site.

It's definitely not tourism, I would have tagged them as
landuse=residential in the past
