FYI I closed this issue in iD yesterday. We now provide a field to let users decide whether to treat `amenity=shelter` as a building or not. Thanks all for your input! Bryan > On Jun 17, 2018, at 12:45 AM, Bryan Housel wrote: > > Does `amenity=shelter` imply `building=yes`? > > The osm

=shelter` implies `building=yes`? Thanks for clarifying Jo - I think this is all ok as long as we give users the option to say whether they think their `amenity=shelter` is a building or not. For the bus shelters I could see it as either way but would not override a local mapper’s choice

shelter=yes on a highway=bus_stop NODE indicates there is a shelter nearby, but says nothing about where it is exactly nor its size. amenity=shelter shelter_type=public_transport on a CLOSEDWAY indicates where the shelter is. height is not super important. I guess most are about 2.3m high. If

Agreed with others that for things like bus shelters, they aren't really buildings, so don't think iD should automatically add building=*. I've been wondering how to tag a rock overhang in OSM, and just found it, amenity=shelter + shelter_type=rock_shelter, quite valuable if your out in the

most have 4 glass walls. The smaller type in the other picture is more recent. Not much shelter from the elements in those. I guess that one could be building=roof, but it wouldn't be much of a shelter without any roof at all, so I took that as implied. I have not seen many bus shelters mapped as

Agree with the notion that building is implied. In France, public transit shelters are often included in the cadastral information, and they wind up being tagged as building=yes + wall=no (through the import) or as building=roof (after verification).

I tag bus stop shelters with amenity=shelter, shelter_type=public_transport. In Belgium they are constructions with glass 'walls' and a metal roof. I don't consider them as buildings though.
