It came to my attention that healthcare=pharmacy is almost only used in addition to the more common tag amenity=pharmacy:
99.7% of healthcare=pharmacy features are also tagged with amenity=pharmacy: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/?key=healthcare&value=pharmacy#combinations The situation is similar (though not as close to 100%) with: healthcare=hospital + amenity=hospital -- 98.25% (https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/healthcare=hospital#combinations) healthcare=dentist + amenity=dentist -- 98.3%(https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/healthcare=dentist#combinations) healtcare=doctor + amenity=doctors -- >97% https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/healthcare=doctor#combinations In all cases the amenity tag is several times more common, and most features do not have the healthcare= tag added. I think it would be reasonable to show healthcare=pharmacy, healthcare=hospital, healthcare=dentist and healthcare=doctor as discouraged and unnecessary in the wiki. Instead, we should recommend using amenity=pharmacy, amenity=hospital, amenity=dentist or amenity=doctors instead, since the de facto practice is that you have to add those tags. -Joseph Eisenberg _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
