Re: [Tagging] leisure=swimming_pool for the pool or the complex?

Hi, I don't agree with the use of the "landuse"-key. Landuse should be used for larger areas where you need a (generic) term for a conglomerate of objects (like "landuse=residential" for an area with houses, garages, gardens, streets - each of which can also be mapped seperately), but not for

I am saying that the land_use tag makes sense for in-ground pools, since they greatly reduce the odds of the land subsequently being used for some other purpose. Yes, I know such reuse does happen on rare occasions; the city of Nashville, TN, closed all of its public pools in the 1960's rather

Ok. Based on this I tried to clarify at: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure%3Dswimming_pool The stuff needed by a mapper is up now top, the controversy stuff is now lower down. --- I found a variety of interesting uses of tagging, including landuse=reservior, which wa
