I photograph and then tag as many things as possible when out mapping.
Today I was looking at a "light industrial area"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_industry
and there are no suitable tags for factories and workshops
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factory
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workshop

Options
Option 1
Industrial=factory/workshop
factory=furniture/cars/aircraft_parts
workshop=appliance_repair/joiner/carpenter
name=BIg Multinational/Joe Bloggs & Family


Option 2
factory=furniture/cars/aircraft_parts
workshop=appliance_repair/joiner/carpenter
name=BIg Multinational/Joe Bloggs & Family


Option 3
factory=furniture/cars/aircraft_parts/appliance_repair/joiner/carpenter
name=BIg Multinational/Joe Bloggs & Family

Option 4
open for suggestion here


A large factory may consist of a number of smaller parts, some of which are 
workshops. Other areas may be assembly lines / bottling plants / first aid 
posts.
A working scheme for tagging will have room for these ideas too.

Please reply to this thread, especially if English is your second language, as 
you may have quite different ways of describing large and small manufacturing 
and repair facilities.
