I've created a complete proposal page for golf=cartpath: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Tag:golf%3Dcartpath
(EDITED: Link fixed) This tag has been used to specify that a path is a cart path within a golf course, designated for the use of golf carts. Please discuss if this tag is necessary and useful in combination with highway=service or highway=path and golf_cart=designated. Previously, some users had imported or tagged features as golf=cartpath alone, but I believe this is incorrect; a golf cart path should always be a type of highway, usually highway=service or highway=path, even if the access is =private. I see 2 possible benefits to adding this tag: 1) special renderings for golf course features, without having to do spacial queries to find features within leisure=golf_course areas 2) helping validate cart path features that are within golf courses but not connected to other paths. The alternative is to just use the usually highway and access tags, including golf_cart=designated and access=private / customers etc and rely on the leisure=golf_course area to say that "this path is a golf cart path". It has also been suggested to use a value of "service=*" instead, but half of the features that are tagged with highway=* and golf=cartpath are currently mapped as highway=path, and half are highway=service. Thoughts? _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
