Why would we remove the tags waste_disposal:chemical_toilet=yes waste_disposal:grey_water=yes ? I know that your point of view is that these are implicit in the "sanitary_dump_station" tag, but as others have pointed out, there are biological dump stations where you can't get rid of your chemicals. Do you suggest these biological places should get a different main tag? Or that we only tag waste_disposal:chemical_toilet=no in case they do not accept chemicals? If it's the latter I am opposing this because "defaults" are practically impossible to have in an open system like OSM (you never know if a value should be the default value, or if the data is incomplete). Regarding grey water I am not sure if tagging makes sense. Does grey water really need dedicated stations for disposal? In doubt I'd keep the tag. > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Note that: > 1) All presently mapped German stations are tagged as accepting both > grey_water and sewage, and no site is mapped with chemical restrictions. > but it was mentioned by Gmbo that not all sites that exist do accept chemical toilet waste. > 2) German mapper Gmbo has designed a tagging scheme for describing stations > in more detail: receptor type, height of the drain, chemical restrictions, > grey water only facilities.
