I avoided a vote on the proposal because too many people were suggesting to use various combinations of natural=spring+temparature=XX and similar instead. However Tag:natural=hot_spring has been created anyway, apparently is marked as "de facto" since 2015 and nobody complained since than so it would seem alright to file a ticket to OpenCarto asking to have it rendered.

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs and Geysers
Some hot springs just look like regular springs. But hot springs in volcanic areas are often sulfuric and may have heavy mineral content. The picture on the wiki page shows an impressive example. Others are boiling “mud pots”. I didn’t find any uses of alternative tagging of natural=spring with spring=hot or spring=hot_spring on Overpass Turbo, and the combinations listed with natural=spring by Taginfo do not show anything hot-spring related (though there may be something with less than 1000 uses) I don’t see any tags with natural=spring and spring=geyser on overpass turbo either.

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
To me, Amenity=onsen is similar to amenity=townhall. for many onsen, there is no particular room you would say is " the onsen," just like no particular room is the "townhall", It is the title of the facility itself.. The purpose of the facility becomes it's name. There might be some small facilities where a certain building is "the onsen", or there is a separation between the shower/prep areas and the actual bathing area, or like a Hotel with a public onsen indoors, and and separate, outdoor bath(s) outside. Tag the amenity on the landuse for the hotel, or tag the amenity onto the hotel building with :outdoor=no, and :outdoor=yes on the actual outdoor bath building/pool. Same thing would go for a sauna. If the building itself is "bob's sauna" - the obviously tag the building or landuse. if only part of the area can be defined as "the sauna" - when the facility's purpose isn't to be a sauna, like a hotel complex or something, then just tag the sauna area by itself, right?

I also could not define which is better. Maybe depending on the situation and country. But from Japanese view, Onsen's main feature is as "public_bath" and the type of bath is the sub category. (and from operator's view, it is easier to make query :) ) If the facility announces they are "XXX's sauna" or given name, and they are not onsen amenity, it is better to tag them as "amenity=sauna" even in Japan. 2014-03-10 17:23 GMT+09:00 Richard Z. : > On Mon, Mar 10, 2014 at 01:44:30PM +0900, Satoshi IIDA wrote: > > > John > > > some onsen are not associated with hot springs, but have hot sand > instead. > > Yes, but they are rare case. > > Most of onsen are hot water bath. > > So might be represented by adding following sub_tags. > > > > bath:sand_bath=[yes|no] ; if the bathing amenity is sand bath (Suna_yu) > or > > not. > > that reminds me we also have hay_bath in the Alps, so that would also > fit into it and may be helpful for other cases too. > > > bath:sauna=[yes|no] ; if the bathing amenity has sauna facility. > (Use > > it when the main function of the amenity is public_bath. consider using > > "amenity=sauna" when the main purpose of the amenity is sauna) > > not sure but usually the sauna in public baths is somewhat separated so > we might as well tag part of the object as sauna. > > Richard > > ___ > Tagging mailing list > Tagging@openstreetmap.org > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging > -- Satoshi IIDA mail: nyamp...@gmail.com twitter: @nyampire ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
> John > some onsen are not associated with hot springs, but have hot sand instead. Yes, but they are rare case. Most of onsen are hot water bath. So might be represented by adding following sub_tags. bath:sand_bath=[yes|no] ; if the bathing amenity is sand bath (Suna_yu) or not. bath:sauna=[yes|no] ; if the bathing amenity has sauna facility. (Use it when the main function of the amenity is public_bath. consider using "amenity=sauna" when the main purpose of the amenity is sauna) May seem they are too trivial, but they have an importance to classify onsen amenities. And could be expanded for further trivial expression in the future. (e.g. "effect of the bath", "bath:color", "bath:drinkable", "kakenagashi" or etc.) Cheers. 2014-03-08 2:43 GMT+09:00 John F.

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
That's true - this is a specific pool, and would be an amenity offered, usually to the public next to the sidewalk out front ( usually anyone walking by can stick them in) not an overall feature - like a drinking fountain. Sometimes they are inside, in a common waiting area, so if you decide not to bathe with friends, you can at least soak your feet. Perhaps amenity=foot bath? Maybe it's not best for bath type then. I dunno. Javbw PS @dieterdreist - I found the mailing list! I'll be asking about that civic land use shortly.

For others reading this: Noting foot_bath is good, as they are usually are a (free) service offered in the front of the onsen to passerbys - a way to try the water without going inside, or in public areas. it's very shallow, and surrounded by seats, it's like a big sink, rather than a pool. Locating them (there's usually several in a hot spring resort town) is great for finding them when walking around a big resort area like Kusatsu or Ikaho. They are common throughout Japan, and there are several famous ones as well (like the one next to the hot springs in the center of town in Kusatsu). > (I'm not a native speaker, suggestions for more proper expression are > welcome!)

But I don't know the correct word to represent "Onsen" in English. Is "[something]=hot_spring_bath" better?

John wanted to know if there is a difference between "volcanic" and "geothermal", and yes there is. Aside of that I don't agree with your argumentation anyway. Why would I introduce a new term like deep-earth-heat when there are perfectly accepted and widely used terms such as volcanic and geothermal?

That's true - but a very bad style for osm tagging, if you propose to use the superset's name (geothermal) for the superset MINUS the subset, so basically you propose to use the superset's name for a subset. Reminds me at the ugly natural=tree issue some time ago, where originally natural=tree referred to "outstanding", "landmark" or "important" trees, which lead to trouble when other mappers started to map "common" trees even in groups of trees or small "forests" one by one. By the way: is it volcanic if and only if it's breaking through the surface, or even in a geysir, or even where it's known to be some ten meters below the surface? Where it get's volcanic? Therefore I disagree about using geothermal for the subset not containing volcanic activity. Use deep-earth-heat or whatever term for a subset, or define a specialized subtag for the subsets (volcanic, ...(non-volcanic?), (others?)). regards Peter ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

I don't see anything in that definition that says the heat from within the earth has to be a minimum distance below the surface in order to be classed as geothermal. Volcanism is a subset of geothermal, where the hot material is particularly close to the surface. Original Message From: "Richard Z."

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
So, if I am understanding you correctly, an onsen doesn't necessarily have water available, but, if water is available, it must be from a hot spring? If onsen doesn't necessarily imply the presence of a hot spring, then I don't think the English translation in the wiki should translate the term as "hot spring". Also, I was under the impression that the standard in OSM was to use British terminology in tags.

yes but it is a difference. If we can do better we should not introduce
new tags only to use them incorrectly afterwards.
* hot_spring would catch everything that is called hot_spring, I am still
thinking about geysirs.
* geothermal would not apply for many south Italian hot springs, Methana
(Greece) and Yellowstone
( http://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/2005/3024/,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Prismatic_Spring )
ammong others
Now consider the definitions in wikipedia
* temperature:
** wikipedia-de: above 20°C ("Gemäß den Begriffsbestimmungen werden in
Deutschland Grundwässer als Thermalwasser bezeichnet, wenn ihre Temperatur am
Austrittsort mehr als 20 °C beträgt")
** wikipedia-en:
*** a spring with water temperatures above its surroundings[2]
*** a natural spring with water temperature above body temperature – normally
between 36.5 and 37.5 °C (97.7 and 99.5 °F)[3]
*** a natural spring with warm water above body temperature[4]
*** a thermal spring with water warmer than 36.7 °C (98 °F)[5][6]
*** a natural spring of water greater than 21.1 °C (70 °F) (synonymous with
thermal spring)[7][8][9][10]
*** a natural discharge of groundwater with elevated temperatures[11]
*** a type of thermal spring in which hot water is brought to the surface. The
water temperature of a hot spring is usually 6.5 °C (12 °F) or more above mean
air temperature.[12] Note that by this definition, "thermal spring" is not
synonymous with the term "hot spring"
*** a spring whose hot water is brought to the surface (synonymous with a
thermal spring). The water temperature of the spring is usually 8.3 °C (15 °F)
or more above the mean air temperature.[13]
*** a spring with water above the core human body temperature – 36.7 °C (98
°F).[14]
*** a spring with water above average ambient ground temperature,[15] a
definition favored by some
*** a spring with water temperatures above 50 °C (122 °F)[16]
I would not want to go as far as fixing wikipedia before making a definitionin
OSM
So my conclusion - using the locally accepted classification is the only usable
definition of hot springs.

Hi Richard, Aren't volcanos exactly what geothermal refers to, only near or at the surface instead of deep down in the earth? IMHO geothermal refers to "using the thermal energy (aka heat) of the earth", which of course in general is higher if you go deeper down, but the temperature per depth is variable, and at a volcano you just get high temperature even in low depths, but that's all. regards Peter Am 05.03.2014 10:37, schrieb Richard Z.: >> > But I understand your wish to classify a spring a bit more detailed.

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
PS: the onsen icon (♨) is always for an amenity - a hotel or resort that offers a hot spring bath, or a purpose-built, stand alone structure (crude or ornate) just to provide a bathing experience - but it is not just a hole in the ground with a rope around it. It is always an amenity offered by a business, similar to a lap swimming pool vs a pond, or a fire hydrant vs a spring.

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
The onsen icon (♨) is commonly used all over Japan (of course), and is a great icon (a hot bath with steam rising out) to represent a place to get a hot natural bath vs a natural park's hot-spring. "Onsen" always means naturally sourced hot water as well, vs a bathhouse (amenity=spa? showers?), which merely heats up the water with a boiler for you to use. amenity=hot_spring_bath might be a good differentiation, because ♨ = bath Javbw On Mar 5, 2014, at 10:06 AM, Satoshi IIDA wrote: > > > So the idea is to have > > natural=hot_spring - the hole in earth where hot water is comming out > I see :) > > So I prefer to switch the icon from Onsen icon ♨ to another ones. > it ♨ maybe to use for leisure/amenity scheme. > > > > > > 2014-03-04 21:10 GMT+09:00 Richard Z. : > On Tue, Mar 04, 2014 at 03:50:30PM +0900, Satoshi IIDA wrote: > > Hi, > > > > +1 to Tobias. > > > > I feel it needs clarification for this tag scope. > > > > I think it was "leisure=hot_spring" once, > > and switched to "natural=hot_spring". > > exactly. > > > So the main purpose of this scheme is now "natural". > > Like to represent a geyser or some natural features, it seems. > > > > So it is better to make another tag scheme to represent "Onsen" ♨ bathing > > facility. > > as you mentioned we already have various methods to map bathing facilities, > thanks for pointing out leisure=public_bath. > > So the idea is to have > natural=hot_spring - the hole in earth where hot water is comming out > + natural=water - if there is a pool of water around it > + water_characteristic - attached to both spring and water > + all other related facilities mapped with their own well known tags such > as tourism=attraction, amenity=public_bath, leisure=beach_resort, > natural=beach, sport=swimming .. please add those which I have forgotten. > > Some of those tags, like swimming need improvement which is independent from > this proposal. > > water_characteristic is intended to be reusable for natural=spring and all > waterways and other water bodies. > > > Many Japanese rural "tourism=hotel" has Onsen amenity. > > > > # Some Japanese mappers use "amenity=public_bath" to represent "Sento". > > # "Sento" is like a spa, but more daily used amenity. > > # http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sent%C5%8D > > > > In my opinion, to represent a "Onsen Hotel", > > e.g. > > "tourism=hotel" > > "amenity=public_bath" > > "leisure=onsen" > > > > or some combination.

I am not aware of many sulfurous hot springs in Europe, one of them is on the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methana peninsula. Do you think characterising that as sulfurous would be fine? I think we need something a "main characteristic" for layman usage and something for the detailed properties.

I was even thinking reusing it to characterise lava streams but then we would need a separate tag for solid lava fields, probably not so good. So maybe water_characteristic which could be used for everything from mudpots to saltwater in the ocean.

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
Hi, +1 to Tobias. I feel it needs clarification for this tag scope. I think it was "leisure=hot_spring" once, and switched to "natural=hot_spring". So the main purpose of this scheme is now "natural". Like to represent a geyser or some natural features, it seems. So it is better to make another tag scheme to represent "Onsen" ♨ bathing facility. Many Japanese rural "tourism=hotel" has Onsen amenity. And there is "amenity=public_bath" already. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dpublic_bath # Some Japanese mappers use "amenity=public_bath" to represent "Sento". # "Sento" is like a spa, but more daily used amenity. # http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sent%C5%8D In my opinion, to represent a "Onsen Hotel", e.g. "tourism=hotel" "amenity=public_bath" "leisure=onsen" or some combination.

Re: [Tagging] Hot springs
Speaking as a chemist, the term "sulfuric" would imply strong acidity as in sulfuric acid. What you're looking for I believe is a term to indicate if the water smells bad or not. Many hot springs have a rotten egg smell lent to the water by dissolved hydrogen sulfide (H2S), some of which escapes into the atmosphere to assault one's nose. This water would also be acidic but not to the same degree as "sulfuric" suggests. Perhaps sulfide=yes/no or sulfurous=yes/no would work better. Also, I like the term water_characteristic or something similar. A more general, because not limited to water, but less common term might be effluent_characteristic. This would cover hot springs that involve mud, steam, or other stuff coming out of the ground. If water only, then effluent_characteristic=water or effluent_characteristic=water+steam It might even be extended to include hydrogen sulfide: effluent_characteristic=water+sulfide Regards, Dave On Tue, Mar 4, 2014 at 6:41 AM, Richard Z. wrote: > On Mon, Mar 03, 2014 at 01:53:48PM +0100, nounours77 wrote: > > > > > I have significantly changed > https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Hot_Spring > > > with the intention to revive the proposal - thanks for any comments > and enhancments. > > > > > > Dear Richard, > > > > thanks for your initiative.

Consistence is a standard English word, but a relatively uncommon one, compared to consistency. It would be good to tag any hot springs that are caustic enough that you wouldn't want skin contact, whether due to acidity or alkalinity. Original Message From: "Richard Z."

Well, think it might get tricky. I know places where you will find several springs right next to each other. Some are hot, some are warm and some are cold. All have different contents not depending on the temperature. If you it is save to take a bath or even drink the water does not really depend on the temperature either. Even in hot places/areas it might get cold at night and I remember it was fun bathing in ~45°C hot water in Africa at midnight though the air temperature was below 15°C. Another point is the use of sports=swimming which is way to general defined so far and should not be used for every places where you can go swimming but for places with some infrastructure. Well, please think about adding water=* and removing sports=swimming from the part about lakes/ponds. All together, I am not really sure if it is smart to split springs by temperature. cu fly ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Not sure about the word "consistence" which looks strange to me (but I'm not native). And also not very sure about the values: E.g. "mineral" - every spring contains minerals, the interesting point is which and how much. "sulfuric" - just a special case of "mineral" - why pick this one and not the others Just asking, not being specialist for hot_springs so cannot bring a solution. But would like to have them als on OSM, so I can go and jump in if I happen to drive by, it is so relaxing!!! cheers, nounours77 ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
