and religious is no land use, exactly. > fly wrote on 2015-02-17 22:14: >> I still do not understand, why we can not use religion=* without any >> landuse. > > on which area description? I have no problem to additionally add amenity=place_of_worship or appropriate tag to the area. The same is true for supermarket with there own area including parking. No problem to tag the whole area shop=supermarket. For buildings we have building=*. Maybe we just lack of a proper tag to describe the area but landuse=religious is a poor answer. Anyway, we probably need more of the primary tags anyway as people look at things from different perspectives and we already have the same scenario with landuse=forest vs natural=woods vs land_cover=tree. >> As far as I understand there can be only one landuse but neither the >> proposal nor the wiki page really faces the problem especially regarding >> deprecating other landuse like cemetery without offering a replacement. > > it is probably for historic reasons that cemetery slipped into the > landuse category. It would be logical to migrate it to amenities, such > as graveyard. I understand landuse=cementry as a land use but not religious. Anyway we are using amenity=hospital for the whole area without any use of landuse.
