On the other hand, there are thousands of man_made=storage_tank without a building tag. A rendering engine could make the "building" implicit. Or a mechanical retag could add the building tag. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://li

Sorry, I thought about using man_made=storage tank and in addition building=storage_tank (rather than mentioned building=yes). On Mon, 13 Apr 2015 22:43:18 -0700 Clifford Snow wrote: > That ship has sailed. man_made=storage_tank is the standard. Maybe > early on it should have been man_made=buil

A building=storage_tank only tells you what the building looks like from the outside, and what was it's first purpose. It could very well be an interesting hotel. uto, 14. tra 2015. 07:45 Clifford Snow je napisao: > > On Mon, Apr 13, 2015 at 10:20 PM, Mateusz Konieczny > wrote: > >> I think tha

For your inspection, upgrade of: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dstorage_tank To "defacto" status on the wiki (as it has 100,000 uses). Note the German page has always asked for building=yes on this feature, which strikes me as both reasonable and a rendering hack. __
