Landuse=religious AFAIK started being used for land that is owned by a religious entity, and in it there would be schools, playgrounds, priest living grounds, and so on. Then this was disputed, and if this was actually landuse=residential.
Some said it should be used for the land around a church, similar to amenity=school around a building=school. There are parks around temples in Japan that are sacred and they are being tagged with it. Anyway, the tag is a bit vague, but I wouldn't say it's too problematic. 2015-01-03 12:02 GMT+01:00 Warin <61sundow...@gmail.com>: > On 3/01/2015 4:56 PM, tagging-requ...@openstreetmap.org wrote: > >> Date: Sat, 03 Jan 2015 04:45:24 +0100 >> From: Andreas Goss<andi...@t-online.de> >> To:tagging@openstreetmap.org >> Subject: Re: [Tagging] Change of rendering: place of worship and >> terminal without building tag >> Message-ID:<m87okr$iep$1...@ger.gmane.org> >> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed >> >> >landuse=religious >>> >> Which still nobody knows what it is supposed to be used for... >> > > I too don't know what it is to be used for.
