Hi Robin, Sebastian from Wheelmap here. :)
You're right, wheelchair=* is not enough, and what "accessible" means is different for everyone. It's cool you want to tag more things about PoIs! Wheelmap is going to display many more tags soon, as well. If we keep this organized, we can ensure both OnWheels, Wheelmap, and all the other clients stay interoperable.
Have you had a look at the existing accessibility tags in OSM already? From what I see, many of your proposed tags exist already:
- entrances: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:entrance - doors: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:door - parking: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Parking - toilets: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dtoilets - elevators: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Delevator - dimensions: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:width - indoor: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Simple_Indoor_TaggingI think the most important thing is: Ensure that the tags you mentioned are not added to *place-of-interest* nodes directly, but to their correct "fine-granular" entities in OSM. For example, a door width or step count should be tagged on the node that represents the entrance door, not the café PoI node inside the building (or worse, the building polygon).
Maybe it's best to keep discussions/proposals in the wiki (each discussion/proposal near the tag it belongs to) and leave a ping here whenever a new discussion happens. From what I see, big proposals with many tags at once tend to fail (see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposal:Healthcare_2.0), small proposals seem to work better.
You might also want to have a look at https://sozialhelden.github.io/a11yjson/describing-objects/interfaces/ from A11yJSON, which is our 'other' data format about physical accessibility. It might be a good inspiration source :)
All the best, Sebastian Felix Zappe
