People usually default to amenity=* when all else fails. In Australia the ambulance service is a completely different organisation to fire and police and I can almost bet some would be tagged amenity=ambulance or amenity=ambulance_station... That isn't to say we should keep doing this if nothing else has been documented or used extensively... We also have SES (State Emergency Service) which is a volunteer organisation that helps during all other types of natural disasters and emergencies not covered by the other 3, like when roofs are blown off, or flooding traps people and animals etc... _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
