[Tagging] RFD Camp ground Kitchens and their fittings

Hi, Follow a thread on another forum (non OSM, but talking about side issues) I think the following things should be mapped to add information to the map in regards some, mainly commercial, camp grounds that have communal kitchens; stove top (no, not a bbq) microwave_oven fridge (or refriger

There is much that needs to be done to bring OSM up to speed regarding camping facilities IMO. We have only a very few tags tourism=camp_site, tourism=caravan_site, and in a stretch, leisure=summer camp to describe the myriad of facilities out there. AFAIK, there is no way to distinguish a primiti

"cistern" in English implies underground or covered. You want something like man_made=water_tank (unfortunately often used as firw-water tank) or man_made=storage storage=water On 31 January 2015 at 00:49, S Volk wrote: > > Hi, > I've been mapping on Africa in HOT tasks and around, I've seen s

Re: [Tagging] How to tag a cistern?

Speaking of cisterns, Does this notion of "cistern are reservoirs" cover fire cisterns? In most urban and suburban areas of Japan, there are underground hydrants, but there are a lot of fire cisterns as well out here in rural Japan. The fire trucks carry a snorkel. I assume this is an old syst
