I was thinking about this and indeed a normal gate swings. I guess by "normal gate" we both intend something like this: http://maps.google.de/maps?hl=de&ie=UTF8&q=roma+quadraro&fb=1&gl=de&ei=sl3rS-32GYK3jAe945HBDw&ved=0CBMQpQY&view=map&geocode=FafMfgIdx1C_AA&split=0&sll=41.864359,12.538055&sspn=0.000000,0.000000&hq=&hnear=Quadraro,+Latium,+Italien&ll=41.871534,12.50345&spn=0.005696,0.009645&t=h&z=17&layer=c&cbll=41.871474,12.503337&panoid=FOfctI9Tmur8m2wZzxJ8eQ&cbp=12,5.7,,2,-0.03 while with swing_gate I wanted to map something like this: http://maps.google.de/maps?hl=de&ie=UTF8&q=roma+quadraro&fb=1&gl=de&ei=sl3rS-32GYK3jAe945HBDw&ved=0CBMQpQY&view=map&geocode=FafMfgIdx1C_AA&split=0&sll=41.864359,12.538055&sspn=0.000000,0.000000&hq=&hnear=Quadraro,+Latium,+Italien&ll=41.849193,12.562126&spn=0.005698,0.009645&t=h&z=17&layer=c&cbll=41.849275,12.562048&panoid=dEWR7o3KFigQj5Cysk5IQQ&cbp=12,217.68,,2,14.01 You find this type of gate in many places - basically it is a urban type of gate that is not intended against pedestrians but only against cars. > I'd agree that barrier=turnstile is a good idea - its already listed on > the Key:barrier page, but without any description. > But is a separate tag for full height turnstiles needed? Can't you just > tag it as barrier=turnstile, plus height= ? I'd really prefer to have 2 different types because it is completely different function and construction, and just the turning mechanism is in common: - "normal" turn style: http://www.nieros.si/fileadmin/template/main/images/katalog/higiena/DK-F.jpg or with vertical axxis: http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Datei:Drehkreuz.jpg&filetimestamp=20090724115120 on one hand, and on the other hand - full height ones: http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Datei:Drehkreuz_Mannheim.JPG&filetimestamp=20090905102023 http://www.sicherheit.info/SI/cms.nsf/lookupImagesByDocID/1105281/$file/Gotschlich2_n.jpg > Also for turnstiles, worth specifying that they are (usually) one-way, yes, not all are oneway so specifying could be useful. > and some way of mapping that.
