Right idea, but from my perspective landuse=* shouldn't be used to describe an individual feature (like an orphanage), but to describe the use of an area of land. If you want to do tiered tags like this you'd use something more like amenity=residential_home + residential_home=orphanage. I.e. an orphanage is a type of residential_home is a type of amenity. NOT a childrens_home is a type of residential is a type of landuse. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
