> I second reddit suggestion to use objective criteria. Totally agreed.
From OSM perspective, we describe how the things are, not so much how they feel and what are the intentions. That is to say, the question whether something is friendly or hostile is a decision of the inventors and the users of the bench, not for the mapper. It's similar to an earlier discussion in this list about "biker-friendly" places. The infrastructure and services people consider as friendly to biker can be mapped. Or similar to discussion about rating places and qualifying them as of "good or bad quality", like hotel stars. Number of starts issued by a certification authority can be mapped, but whether it really means "quality" is totally personal and cannot be mapped. By the way, there is already a tag for the number of places on a bench: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:seats. And for width, length and height. Users can conclude that a 1,8 m wide bench made of 3 seats is not intended to be lied on, even less so if each seat has armchairs. So, maybe no new tag is needed ? _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
