Just a short note to let you know that in the Italian mailing list (talk-it) we recently had the contribution of an ambulance driver who reported how in his zone he uses OSM maps as the best solution availabale. Cheers! Sergio On 2018-12-10 13:06, Paul Allen wrote: > On Mon, Dec 10, 2018 at

Sorry, but I don't think so: office=control_centre could be the control center for whatever infrastructure (/unless some more specific tag exists in some specific namespace/). *If* (/and it is a big if of which I'd like to say something later/) we want to tag the places where emergency phone

Because building=ambulance_station is for building build as an ambulance station, no matter what is there now. Dec 9, 2018, 4:58 PM by em...@daniel-korn.de: > But why are we using emergency=ambulance_station and not > building=ambulance_station? > >

You're definitely right. Good point! I've been convinced that the office-key is a suitable place to put the tag. Am 09.12.2018 um 17:15 schrieb Paul Allen: On Sun, Dec 9, 2018 at 3:59 PM dktue > wrote: You're right, indeed. Office would definitely suit better.

Re: [Tagging] emergency=control_centre

Knowing where to find an ambulance (/the nearest one.../) is, I think, of more general interest than knowing where emergency calls are handled. About "/amenity/"... please don't get me started on that: I have a profound hate for the term and in the particular case when you need an ambulance, I

Re: [Tagging] emergency=control_centre

You're right, indeed. Office would definitely suit better. But why are we using emergency=ambulance_station and not building=ambulance_station? If we're doing so to make a grouping about emergency-related facilities, then we should go with an emergency-tag. Am 09.12.2018 um 16:50 schrieb

[Tagging] emergency=control_centre

Hello, I would like to propose a tag for emergency control centers (the place you reach when you call 112 in Europe). My suggestion would be "emergency=control_centre". Cheers, dktue ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org
