[Tagging] manger/feeding place
Hi! While digging through the wiki and taginfo on the search for a tag for a manger I stumbled upon amenity=game_feeding (unknown status and used 20 times according to taginfo). This seems to be a tag used for a manger to feed game animals. Not exactly what I'm looking for because I need a manger for all kinds of animals. But on that page also alternative tags are presented which may fit my needs (taginfo-count in parenthesis): * amenity=feeding_place (2) * amenity=manger (12) * amenity=feeding_rack (11) * amenity=cratch (4) * man_made=cratch (10) * man_made=animal_feeding (12) I also stumbled upon some subkeys: * feeding:for (6) * feeding:type (6) -> 3 times cratch and 3 times manger as value Not really a clear favourite here. I also need a tag for an automated feeding station; my first thought was amenity=feeding_station. Now I guess that these two can be combined into the following: * amenity=feeding_place * feeding:type=manger/automated * feeding:for= * feeding:fooder= Any thoughts? I would write a proposal to document the tag and its subkey. regards, Martin ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Either to be cared for, or re-homed. UK examples are charities such as the RSPCA, Dogs Trust, Battersea Dogs Home and numerous other smaller places. Animal shelter appropriate in those cases, but not in the case of Boarding Kennels, or Boarding Catteries where you take your pet to be cared for whilst you go on holiday. For these I would propose amenity=boarding_kennel and amenity=boarding_cattery. A few do take cats and dogs, but in my experience this is extremely unusual, few cat owners would want to leave their cat at a place where they will hear dogs. Small animal boarding is another amenity, however not very common. I have never come across a place where small animals, cats and dogs are cared for, other than animal shelters.

Re: [Tagging] amenity=kennel
I also think that "amenity=animal_shelter" with other tags to indicate kinds of animals goes in the sense of OSM tagging. Things like "animal=shelter" are nonsense: a shelter is not an animal, whereas an animal_shelter is an amenity. To set a general rule of thumb, for those tags that are not boolean properties (yes/no), the value ("animal_shelter") shall be an item from the set represented by the key ("amenity"). To remove ambiguities related to short tags like "horse=yes", why not using another set of specific tags indicating whether a kind of animal is accepted in the shelter, like "animal_shelter:dog=yes", "animal_shelter:cat=yes", "animal_shelter:horse=yes" and so on, maybe refining the attribute "yes" by something more useful? Teuxe - Mail original - De: "Alberto" À: tagging@openstreetmap.org Envoyé: Vendredi 14 Septembre 2012 03:12:48 Objet: [Tagging] amenity=kennel Ok, because according to English native speakers there isn't a single word that indicates "a facility where animals are kept and the staff feeds them and cares of them", I propose to change from "amenity=kennel" to "amenity=animal_shelter". In Italy there are centers for dogs only, cats only, dogs and cats, wild animals in general, wild sea animals only, wild birds only and so on. Any combination is potentially allowed, so adding a tag "dog=yes", "cat=yes", "wild_animals=yes", "wild_birds=yes" and so on is useful. "pet_keeping" is not used according to taginfo and it is too restrictive: there are facilities that don't held pets but wild animals. "building=asylum" is not intuitive and it's not used according to taginfo. Moreover the key "building" is too restrictive for a center that can include buildings, meadows, courtyards. "Amenity=animal_boarding" is too restrictive: there are kennels that take stray dogs, catteries for stray cats, rescue centers for wounded wild animals. On the other hand "amenity=animal_shelter" is intuitive and already in use according to taginfo. Also "animal=shelter" is already in use: in the wiki animal page it's suggested to use it, but on what basis? There isn't any proposal page and it hasn't been voted. Ultimately I think we have to unify "amenity=animal_shelter" and "animal=shelter" in one tag, refine and officialize it. I think that with a feature page and with a preset in editors, one of these could become an universally used tag. Then we can refine it and add one or more additional tags for the purpose of the facility. I prefer "amenity=animal_shelter" to "animal=shelter" because according to wiki "amenities are an assortment of community facilities" and an animal shelter is one of them. On the other hand the key "animal" is not defined on the wiki and according to taginfo it's often used to indicate a species of animal or simply "animal=yes". We have already "amenity=veterinary" and not "animal=veterinary", so why not "amenity=animal_shelter"?

[Tagging] amenity=veterinary: size and animals
Hi! The tag amenity=veterinary is used for veterinaries. But there exists not (documented) possibility to tag the size of the facility or what animals are treated. Taginfo shows that a very limited time the size was tagged with veterinary=hospital. I would suggest the following: * veterinary=doctor/clinic/hospital * veterinary:for=; or alternatively veterinary:for:=yes/no An alternative to veterinary= would be veterinary:size=.

If we are looking for a general tag, we have to find one that can fit in all the world. The distinction you say can be done with additional tags, like boarding=yes/no, stray=yes/no.

As in many other cases (e.g. pubs that are also restaurants and/or also hotels) as a mapper you have to pick the most appropropriate tag. There will always be edge cases. The "most useful" tag is the one that most people are likely to use - if it's too complicated to make it into editor presets and too complicated for people to remember it won't get used.

I'll put these tags in a proposal "amenity=animal_shelter". What do you think about refine it in "animal_shelter:dog:stray=yes/no", "animal_shelter:dog:boarding=yes/no" and so on for other species? If you know a kennel is for stray and boarding you should tag with "amenity=animal_shelter", "animal_shelter:dog:stray=yes " and "animal_shelter:dog:boarding=yes ". If you don't know the purpose of a kennel you just tag it with "amenity=animal_shelter" and "animal_shelter:dog=yes". If you don't know neither the species kept in a shelter, you just tag it with "amenity=animal_shelter". Is it too complicated?

Re: [Tagging] Open stable / feeding station
Some more feedback from the UK: Open stables are (more or less) unknown there. Also for legal reasons already mentioned. That seems to be the main reason why no proper english term exists for this. What comes close to an open stable is called grass livery, but the area is (much) larger, the surface is not maintained, often no or just a limited number of shelters and there are usually no feeding places/stations. Would it be better to use a common tag for an "area where animals are kept"? And then refine with subkeys? Something like: landuse=animal_keeping ¹ animal_keeping:for:=yes/no animal_keeping:type=grass_livery/open_stable/ ¹ I have no clue what a good value would be. Any suggestions?
