I think this is exactly the issue we had discussed previously: "the
concept" vs "the ID" for that concept. When words are used as IDs, they
always come with semantic meaning based on your cultural background. The
words "college" and "sanatorium" mean different things. With an opaque ID

Ideally, how tags *are* used and *should* be used should be the same.

In principle, but not to the extreme to use it for something different.

Yes, I agree "school" is a pretty loose term used from anything ranging
from kindergarten to primary to secondary school / high school / college.
However, "college" and "university" aren't. College, as Vao Matua also
pointed out, usually refers to secondary school / high school age

In Samoa the term "College" refers to a secondary school also known as a
high school in other places.
It seems that building=yes plus amenity=university for the area around the
buildings would work for the college question.
Can someone explain why there isn't a landuse=education tag, or something

Happy December! We have lots moving in the iD editor project.

Last month, I released iD v2.5.0 (November 10, 2017), which includes support
for OpenStreetCam. If you haven’t tried it yet, you should really check out
how easy it is to work with street level imagery in iD.
Hi Tom,
Good point you raise about the building topology, but I do think there
are reasons to allow this:
- As to your point of building topology, as I mostly interpret this:
* school: tag mostly used for kindergarten or primary school: generally
only classrooms and no dedicated laboratory /
How about using surveillance + surveillance:type instead? [1]
Though it seems to be intended for wider spaces, like the whole bank or a
whole station, plaza or parking lot.

The method just to copy the amenity value onto the building value dilutes the idea that the building
tag should describe the building typology.
An educational campus often consists both of purpose-built buildings, e.g. with a large lecture
hall, as well as re-dedicated buildings such as a villa
Hi,
I noticed the tag
"building=college"
is missing from the main building key page
(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building).
This tag is the equivalent of building=school/university as the
accompanying key for tagging the actual buildings of an
"amenity=college". It seems logical
