Entry into the different zones is at fixed points Are the restrooms and charging stations assignable to a zone that is constant? No. In practice, this isn't typically an issue because the closest facilities are normally in the same zone as you are, both for security and customs. They also tend to be less useful features because it's easier to look up for a restroom sign than use a device. And this is leaving aside flights that arrive, where they may send you on at least two sets of internal passages leading out of secured areas, or into the general waiting area at the gates. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Agreed for restrooms. For charging stations, International Transit Lounge” status of your flight AFAIK, this is about mapping the different named areas of the *terminal* - AKA how do people refer to the areas of the terminal itself. is it domestic? International? in the “sterile” area after security check? is it arrivals, departures, or both? i don’t think we can map the area before or after the checkpoints yet, as indoor mapping is not finalized - so lets skip the sterile stuff for now. the aeroway=gate tag isn’t for the building nor the passengers inside - it is where the nose-wheel of the plane parks - the current gate tag is for the *plane* not the passengers. we have no good way to map the people side of the airport yet - just what is there for the planes and the large visible building sections of the terminal (and pin points where amenities and shops and whatnot are) . A certain kind of flight may arrive with a certain kind of passengers, but is the terminal they arrive at have a specially named area of the terminal used just for this kind of passenger, beyond international and domestic? My guess is no. Because they are just going through the international arrivals section of the international terminal to immigration, and onto international baggage claim, then through customs into the public area of the airport. For now, mapping the “domestic” and “international” labels of the terminal, as well as the “satellites” of the terminals - all of these are buildings (or very large pieces of buildings) are named on airport guide maps, and should be easily mapped as OSM is today, probably with a terminal=* subtag terminal:travellers=international terminal:travellers=domestic terminal:travellers=mixed Terminal:part=satellite Terminal:part=wing Terminal:part=main these work together, as often large sections of a terminal are designated for international or domestic use (the design of modern terminals are purpose built for one or the other and not adaptable, so it is permanently designated) - if the whole terminal itself is not dedicated for a particular way. Having a slightly darker or lighter shade of purple for the international or domestic sections can make seeing which terminals or terminal satellites serve what purpose very easy. After indoor mapping is finalized, then we can worry about levels being assigned to departures, arrivals, transit, security checks, private, etc,etc. I think those above tags are the only “zones we can create for inside the terminal now - the zones on the apron or runway area could be mapped now, as they are not indoor areas.

Re: [Tagging] Draft tag for Airport Security Zones | Non-voting procedure
I'm not really familiar with the topic, but in Europe there is a special treatment for Schengen passengers see [1] I wonder whether it is just the customs or that there are really zones related to this within the airport. If so, there might me a need for a separate value for that. Maybe someone with more travel experience can comment on this ? regards m [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schengen_Area#Customs_controls On Thu, Jun 11, 2015 at 7:06 PM, Bryce Nesbitt bry...@obviously.com wrote: See: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/security_zone Now I'm not going to run a regular vote on this.

This becomes a factor when dealing with domestic versus international areas - traveling through the EU countries who accepted the Schengen proposal (if I read the article correctly) is similar to or the same as domestic” travel inside a single country. People arriving on an intra-EU flight between these countries is arriving at the “domestic” terminal, as there is no visa check, hence no immigration check. Reading the wiki page, it sounds like they do common “security” checks, you *do* have to prove nationality, but do *not* have to prove your visa status if you are identified as a resident of a Schengen country. Someone flying from outside the EU Shengen area (inter-EU travel, like from Japan ^_^ ) would be arriving at the international terminal and will go through immigration / visa check. so I’m pretty sure this is not an area of the airport - but merely immigration rules followed by immigration officials. EG: it should be covered by common domestic/international/transit areas as we already understand them The only way I could be wrong is if they have a “Schengen” terminal or something like it : special *facilities* at the airport *separate* from the normal domestic and international style terminals. Not a separate Schengen line at immigration, or a security checkpoint, but if there is a distinct area that is different from Domestic and International. EU residents care to chime in?

This is my guess for how it is in the eu - its merely how immigration reacts to arriving customers, not a static state or description of the terminal - which are often labeled domestic or international.
