Re: [Tagging] How to map Hostile Architecture? e.g. benches you can't lie/sleep on?

[OSMDoudou]

Wiki describes a bench as a place to sit on.

Lying on some benches is possible but sounds like a hack, as the "friendly vs. hostile" point of views proves.

I wouldn't tag the hacks that can be done of things.

A bit like we don't tag urbex ("urban exploration") but tag abandonned industrial places.

By the way, there is already a tag for the number of places on a bench: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:seats. And for width, length and height.

we could add  a tag how many people can lie on the bench as well. If there are physical impediments against lying (as in "staying in a horizontal position") the value could be 0.

Not sure about a good word for the tag, maybe "lying_capacity"?

Btw.: from a 1.8m long bench I would conclude that one person could lie on it, as long as she isn't much longer than that. It may also be a question how the ends are made, it may not be a problem to have your feet pending, if it is physically possible. There are many parameters, therefor being explicit ("how many people can lie here") seems the most useful approach to answering this question.

Cheers,

Martin
