the first is an apartment building, the latter a kind of accomodation > * building=hotel => tourism=hotel > the first is a building type, the latter a hotel (function) > * building=warehouse => shop=department_store (no indication to that > in warehouse > that's completely nonesense IMHO, a warehouse is a back area without public access, a department store is a shop typology. > * building=church/cathedral => amenity=place_of_worship > the first is a building type (like all building values btw., save "yes"), i.e. any building errected as or transformed into a church (architectonic typology), not necessarily used for worshipping nowadays, the latter is a place where worshipping takes place, does not have to be a building at all. > * building=school/hospital => amenity=school/hospital > the amenity goes on the whole area, including often / typically outdoor areas and other building types than "school" or "hospital", e.g. garages, heating plant, etc. Cheers, Martin
