+1

It will work far better than waste=* or rubbish=* on there own if you
also think about the amenity=recycling and the possible overlaps.

I think amenity=waste_disposal with sub tags for the type of waste being
disposed of could be a workable solution. It's more complicated than using
another top level tag like dump_station, etc., for sewage but allows for
more specificity when desired. This seems to be a good, general purpose,
top level tag.

[Tagging] Waste_collection - a new Feature Proposal - RFC

2015-02-13 Thread David Bannon

OK folks, here it really is !  A small group have identified a need for
a new high level tag, waste_collection=

Likely values to be identified in a latter and separate process. Not
unlike those used for waste=, a subtag of amenity=waste_disposal;waste=*

The background is that while we started talking about improving tags
that apply to campsites, we quickly realised that waste (rubbish, trash,
garbage, human waste, animal waste) exists on its own, usually far too
much of it !  I consider the small amount of data in OSM referring to
waste a sure indication that this is an unaddressed need.

Please comment on the proposed name : key:waste_disposal and its high
levelness.

A discussion about possible values would be useful but we consider that
we should get the key up first and then talk about values. Please see 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dwaste_disposal
and
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:waste
