We could use vending=* as for vending machines.
I'm mapping as kiosk when there's more items from the list, shop=tobacco when it's a proper "tabacchino" or "tabaccaio" (outside has a black and white sign with the reference code from the Italian Monopoli), shop=newsagent when sells exclusively newspapers and magazines or it's a standalone kiosk with mostly newspapers for tickets I'd like something like office=tickets (so we'll catch also the place vending tickets outside a museum). In Italy through lotto (only the most recent machines) you could pay bills, taxes and other services. > cheers, > Martin > > Bye, Stefano > _______________________________________________ > Tagging mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging > >
