Hi, Well, in defense of Oliversimmo, we have MANY subjective tags in OSM that require a second look. Like accessible=yes... accessible to whom? Even if you’re just assuming accessible to wheelchairs: wheelchair users have such a wide breadth of preferences, needs, and risks they’re willing to take in the built environment. we’re much better off deprecating the accessible tag and instead specifying the precise width of the surface and whether it has a smooth surface, so users and routers can downstream assess access.
Likewise, in this case, would it make sense to propose a tag for benches as: segment_width=?(expressed in ft) Where the tag represents the longest width that is unhampered by an armrest or other obstruction to laying down. This might be more in the OSM spirit of mapping the physical ‘thing’, and each DOWNSTREAM interpretation can assess whether the bench can be used for laying down. Anat Sent from my mobile.
