Hi, My own view of the building tag is that it notes what the building looks like to someone on the ground. If it's a fairly generic building then obviously the current use is a fairly good indicator. Something like a church or pub though often still retains the characteristics of that type of bui

I removed all "useful combination" on hydrants wiki, because all optional tags could be added to this list and it would become unnecessarily long. Best regards Alberto --- Questa e-mail è stata controllata per individuare virus con Avast antivirus. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

I think one mapping practice with contact:* could help . 1- addr:* tag space is for generic addresses, used by all consumers 2- if there is ambiguity between adresses (postal, physical, ...) then use several namespaces 2a - addr:* tag space for physical address (used by geocoding, routing, ...) 2

Adam, Martin, thanks for your input. It seems that one cannot only rely on what one sees from the street, or at least not always. Sometimes the name (church vs cathedral) has to be used to determine the value for building. I've seen pubs in all kind of buildings in Belgium, from being located in t

Hi Viking, Thank you for your work on this additional part I'd be in favor of grouping pump et pump:type in on "pump" key. Valid values would be yes, bilge_pump or electric_pum. Yes would be used only if pump technology is unknown. There is no need of 2 keys. All the best François *François

Please don't use "pump:type" as it invites people to use it for loads of different things. You are actually doing it yourself. A "bilge pump" is functional and says nothing about the construction or power source (even if there is such a thing as a typical bilge pump). And "electric_pump" is about t

Hi Moritz, It depends on what characteristics are important to you. "water driven" is power transfer medium so pump:power_medium=water. This is not the energy source! It doesn't say if the water has potential/kinetic energy due to gravity, or if it itself is being pressurised by a powered pump

This will need a whole proposal to get a comprehensive description for pumps. I think we should only use pump=yes for now and wait for a more complete document to be written. I agree with Colin, this is a vast question and it takes time to think about right tags to use. François *François Lacomb
