I too have wanted to raise the level of consciousness about these
offices. There are many in Thailand but their tagging is not uniform
and that makes them difficult to find.
amenity=immigration_office might be a better choice IMO but either
would help the current situation.
office=immigration ?
There is already office=government ... but no sub tags! and the
document for office=administrative suggest that office=government is
for state government things. This is an American view.. the British do
not do this - they have a 'central government'
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_of_the_United_Kingdom.
Perhaps
office=government
government=immigration ?
or
government:immigration=yes
would be better where the office functions are combined..
government:passport=yes
government:vehicle_licence=yes
etc...
The office=government is under represented in the OSM data base ..
perhaps because there are no sub tags to further identify what it is
used for.
I have 'synced' the wiki page
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:office%3Dgovernment with the
Russian source page.
It now reflects the use of the sub tag government= as documented on the
Russian page.
I have also added some words to the wiki page
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:office%3Dadministrative to
better reflect its relation to office=government.
Any errors are mine. Thoughts?
