Good stuff as always!
Some quick thoughts:
I note the bicycle parking does not include ways/areas, since I mapped one near
a Portsmouth University site as an area - due to having a capacity of about a
100!
On the car parking front, I'm not convinced about colour highlighting whether
it has a capacity set or not. I don't realistically see how I can deduce the
capacity of many car parks without counting the individual number of bays! And
then car parks in the countryside are somewhat ad-hoc...
The fact that some are mapped as an area should give a clue to the estimated
capacity.
Does this include single car park nodes yet?
IMHO a more useful (end user) map would be things like whether it's free or
not, or any physical restrictions (normally height).
