I do see 31 highway=trailhead nodes in the OSMDoc database from last year. http://osmdoc.com/en/tag/highway/#values There are only 29 in the data base currently. Here is one. Mapnik, osmarender and OpenCycleMap don't seem to render highway=trailhead nodes, but of course you can do that yourself. http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/269837611 Well the trail itself should be mapped highway=* as appropriate. Adding name="Something Trail" to the trail is helpful. Based on this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailhead The trailhead would be implied by the junction of the trail and the parking lot, or connecting highway or portage, etc. would it not? The amenities that are available at the trailhead will vary from place to place won't they? How about tagging the individual amenities? So map board and trail information would be tourism=information http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dinformation Adding name="Something Trail Trailhead" to the tourism=information node is probably not too wrong. I suppose adding tourism=information to the highway=trailhead node wouldn't be wrong either as long as there was information there. Public toilets would be amenity=toilets A water fountain would be amenity=drinking_water Trash cans and recycling bins would be amenity=waste_disposal amenity=recycling _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
