I'm interested in feedback on how to tag particular chain restaurants/places. I have a copy of the OSM planet database and see inconsistencies in how these places are tagged.
* Baskin Robbins (fast food?) * Chipotle Mexican Grill (fast food or restaurant?) * COSI (restaurant or cafe?) * Five Guys (restaurant or fast food?) * Fuddruckers (restaurant or fast food?) * Panera Bread (restaurant or cafe?) * Pizza Hut (restaurant or fast food?) * Potbelly (restaurant or cafe?) others? I set up a wiki page where you can give feedback, or feedback on the mailing list is fine too. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag_guide To guide the fast food or restaurant question, I consider whether food is paid for prior to eating (e.g. at a counter) and whether or not disposable plates, utensils, etc. are used. This is often consistent with criteria used in classifying places for zoning purposes. http://bit.ly/96j7HB (DC zoning - PDF) http://bit.ly/cvh1X4 (Scituate, Massachusetts - PDF) http://bit.ly/cnAq2J (Jupiter, Florida - PDF) Regards, Katie -- Katie Filbert @filbertkm
