This appears to be round the wrong way.
might be
As these types of places tend to occupy a large area, it's drawn as a closed
way or even as the actual buildings rather than a POI.
a POI is not just a point, it can be just as well a way or an area.
Yes, I agree
This implies that the actual physical structure is an animal.
hm, so in leisure=park the actual physical structure is a leisure?
Well, not to get drawn into a general tagging war, but I think that many
(primary) key tags are inappropriate, including leisure (but also
power=* & any that are a subjective adjectives such as historical=*)
I personally think all key tags should be nouns & physical.
(If you really do want to discuss this further, please start a new
thread but I advice against it as it will be so boring ;) )
It should be something like:
building=animal_rescue_centre
It can have a building tag, but I'd suggest to tag
building=<building-type> and not building=<building-function>
Could you expand on what you mean by building-type compared with
building-function?
Cheers
