[Tagging] How might we best map emergency helicopter landing zones?

Dear friends, I have worked with folks doing ground surveys of helicopter landing zones during emergency response. These are ground truthed locations, observed by active search and rescue helicopter pilots collecting the basic minimum critical ground survey items for an HLZ for their aircraft

Re: [Tagging] building=yes for multiple building

I am reluctant to suggest that mapping large groups of buildings as one outline is a good idea. As I said, to me it is a last resort and should be avoided at all costs. Otherwise we are going to get blocks of easily mapped buildings outlined as building just because that is a lot easier and

Re: [Tagging] building=yes for multiple building

Hi Joost, The main wiki entry on building tagging says this about building tagging: "In addition outlines can either be simplified shapes or very detailed outlines which conform accurately to the shape of the building. It is not uncommon for buildings to initially be described as simple group

[Tagging] Immigration, asylum, refugee centers

Hi all, I am looking through taginfo and the wiki, but I don't see a good clear tag for immigrant/asylum/refugee "reception" centers. These are usually government type facilities that process immigrants and refugees. Some are also holding facilities, and some are just government offices.

Re: [Tagging] Damage Assessment Tags - Would like feedback on a schema

I don't know Andreas, do we need to say what kind of event it is? I would lean toward damage:type=hurricane|earthquake|etc or event:type=hurricane|earthquake|etc But this actually brings up an issue that we ran into in Nepal. How do identify the event (and maybe event type) independent of

Damage info has been tagged in OSM for a long time. OSM already tags a lot of temporary and transient stuff. We are aware of the nature of the tags and want to be able to review, maintain the remove the tags, it is one of the main goals of any tagging system we settle on like that. On

Greetings everyone, I am looking to help further develop a set of tags to reflect disaster event damage to mapped objects in OSM. OSM has already used damage tags in the past several times for example after Typhoon Haiyan: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Damaged_buildings_crisis_mapping And
