Re: [Tagging] Out of the bars and onto the map: An lgbtq:*=* tagging scheme?

I agree with Frederick here, lgbtq=yes looks like the access tags. This discussion also reminds me the motorcycle-friendly thread not so long ago. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/motorcycle_friendly Yves Le 23 octobre 2018 20:27:04 GMT+02:00, Rory McCann a écrit : >Hi all,

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - (consulate)

If amenity=school, amenity=university and amenity=hospital count as a landuse, then amenity=embassy / consulate can be treated like the landuse of the area. I don’t think a separate landuse tag is needed if the embassy is drawn as a closed way (“area”) -Joseph On Thu, Oct 25, 2018 at 10:41 AM

This is not my area of expertise. But I’ve noticed that a number of bars that are designed for gay men in the USA have a sign on the door with a crossed out “W”. It looks like a no smoking sign but with a capital W instead of a cigarette. This means “no women allowed.” My wife tells me this is

Re: [Tagging] mast / tower / communication_tower (again)

1. Multipurpose tower still seems a little ambiguous to me. Observation tower is closer for most of them, because they are big enough to have elevators and public observation decks, right? Since there are already tags for tower:type=observation and tower:type=communications, perhaps there is no

FYI, currently the height and tower:type of man_made=tower is used to set the zoom level where it appears on the Openstreetmap-carto style sheet (“standard” style). But man_made=communications_tower is assumed to be big and tall, so it renders like a >100m tall tower with no type, or
