The reason why we have two different mapping approaches for mini-roundabout
and roundabout is that at least in one country (that happens to be the
birth-country of OSM) there is a clear distinction between the two with
different road layouts (see

Hi Martin,
I know a shop in my town driven by EWE .
They sells power, internet access, telephone lines and maybe more.
I would not call that an office, EWE calls it "EWE ServicePunkt"

well. then call it a shop or an amenity. Banks for instance are amenities
in OSM. You are right that "office" is typically used for back offices

That is a good point. I don't want to throw all this in amenity.
It isn't a shop...

thanks for the link to the pdf, I think it shows that OSM is again a bit too

In Germany roundabouts are getting more popular, but they require more
space, and unused space is rare here.

Just to add to the fun, we're now getting a new type of roundabout, with a
different-coloured circle of tarmac and no signs (or markings) at all. I'd
use a node if the mini-roundabout is just an ineffectual piece of traffic
calming, and make a circle if people genuinely give way (yes I know that's

Most offices that provide customer service for existing services or billing
resolution don't seem like a shop.
If the role for shop=* is so expansive, then it should be documen

maybe we should distinguish between amenity (open to the public) and office
(no public admitted)?

Hi Martin,
I think you are mixing two things now. I talked about the "As part of a way"
part, not the "On a way or area" part,
which looks even more weird to me.
Besides that: Yes, I also think that we should map a traffic_sign as a node
with the position of the sign.

In a general sense, everything is a node, way or area object, yea.
But a flower field is not a man_made=* object, in the common OSM usage.
It's not "man_made=forest" becau
That depends on how the mini-roundabouts are modelled in the route
network, so it's chicken and egg. I mentioned what I would expect, and
you are right, that's not always how it happens now. But if I ask a

I just notice that center_barrier or center_obstacle would
be US spelling, so it has to be centre_*
In other words, we should probably not use a key that is
different in UK / US spelling, else we'll see many wrong
entries.
Another problem that I see here is that we allow to map
a roundabout as
Maybe we should have roundabouts as a relation, containing all the road
segments which should produce a closed polygon. Then we put the centre
obstacle stuff on the relation. That would be closer to the OSM model of
having one OSM object for one real-world object. Then a magic roundabout

I think it's not that different to a cutline for instance, which is one of the
most used values in man_made. I don't insist in man_made for a flowerbed

AFAIK that a natural open area of grasses is natural=grassland.
If it is a bit taller stuff, possibly natural=scrub ( like the 1m tall green

Thanks.
landuse=meadow looks fine to me. I will add meadow=perpetual and
taxon/genus/species=* to that natural flower fields.

For Mizubasho, most famous field is Oze swamp(but sorry I have never been
there) due to a famous japanese fork song, you know.
