The trade tag might cover some of all of those cases. It covers in particular business-to-business places. It was originally used for companies like builders' merchants who often also did retail sales. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dtrade You might extend the subtags (industrial maybe?). However, I agree that the "shop" in shop=trade may not feel quite right for the places you describe. ael _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
