Going through these one by one e.g: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/315105891, > OK, so it definitely *was* a military area, but not sure if it still is, or if it's now been disposed of? The last info I can find on it (sorry, couldn't copy the link but please Google " Phoenix Military Reservation Fire Control Area") is dated 2011, & makes reference to 5 yearly reviews, but nothing since then. The last change on the map was made by somebody called *ZeLoneWolf*, so if we can track him down, he may be able to help? :-) The area is apparently "only" contaminated, so I don't think it should be called a military danger area, which relates to firing / bombing ranges, but it would be a prime candidate for Brian's new "Hazard" scheme https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/26165183 (danger_area) > Is an active military firing range, so should also be landuse=military + military=range. The current note should be a description so that map users can see it. > https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/151330951 > Yep, military recruiting office in a commercial area. Appears to be Army only, rather than all forces, so military=office + office=recruiting + military_service=army , https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/485899442 (office) > Interesting one! Currently building=commercial + military=office + office=government Can't open the listed URL due to a 405 error?, but Wiki ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Forces_Exchange_System) says that CANEX is the Canadian Forces Exchange System, similar to the US PX, & British NAAFI. We don't have an Australian equivalent, but my understanding is that these are a combination department store & supermarket, reserved for use by military personnel & their families? I wouldn't have said it was actually either a military or a government office? Just looking, & here's an American version https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/5762588456, which I'm guessing is the same thing, & it's listed as a shop=supermarket only. Thanks Graeme
