It is a bad implementation: first of all because there is no reference on hydrants wiki page (and indeed I didn't know it) and consequentely there is a wide range of heterogeneous values that are almost useless for automatic data search. By the way, let's try to improve these existing tags. fire_hydrant:coupling_type indicates the standard (UNI, Storz,...) fire_hydrant:couplings indicates the number and diameters. Right? First question: is it possible that the same hydrant has different coupling types, for example Storz and UNI? I know that in Italy, where I work as fireman, this is not possible, so a single value in fire_hydrant:coupling_type is enough. Second question: how would you indicate the number of couplings? For example an hydrant with two UNI 45 mm couplings and one UNI 70 mm coupling would be: fire_hydrant:coupling_type=UNI fire_hydrant:coupling=45;45;70 OR fire_hydrant:coupling=2 x 45;70 OR...? I would prefer 45;45;70 because it's more explicit and less prone to errors. The use of semicolons to separate different values is commonly accepted on the wiki.
