Re: [Tagging] Business which sells static caravans / mobile homes: shop=mobile_home or shop=static_caravan?

A search of "static caravans" and "for sale" finds many previously-owned static caravans but does not show results for a specialty retailer of these residential caravans. So perhaps they are not really "a thing" in Britain. In that case shop=mobile_home is acceptable, as long as "mobile home"

A static caravan is very movable, providing you have a hgv and the necessary equipment to lift it. Phil (trigpoint) On Tuesday, 19 November 2019, Martin Koppenhoefer wrote: > Am Di., 19. Nov. 2019 um 05:53 Uhr schrieb Joseph Eisenberg < > joseph.eisenb...@gmail.com>: > > > Rather this is a

Re: [Tagging] How to tag earth walls in a shooting ramge

The tag barrier=wall should only be used for barriers which are vertical walls on both sides. When you have a wall with higher ground on one side, level with the top of the wall, that's a retaining wall: barrier=retaining_wall It looks like the original question is about man-made earth slopes,

[Tagging] Real time in public transport

Hello everyone. What do you think about the possibility of standardizing the use of a url in "departures_board" or "passenger_information_display" tags to be able to report arrival times in real time at a stop or train / subway / bus station? I think it can be very useful information. If it is

[Tagging] How to tag earth walls in a shooting ramge

Shooting ranges often have earth walls to separate the individual shooting "booths". I see three alternative tagging approaches, but none is satisfactory 1) man_made=dyke (but the wiki says this is only for water) 2) trace the flat top of the earth mounds with a man_made=embankment closed way -
