maybe you don’t signpost these? Every country has fire regulations for buildings which include guaranteeing accessibility for fire fighters in case of fire (not all may enforce them), for example German regulations date back to the middle ages. The areas in question are about accessibility of the building from the outside (space where equipment like vehicles and ladders are placed), and they do not exist for every building, only bigger buildings (not everything reachable from the street), like big public buildings or residential complexes have to provide them. I would see these as a property more than a feature (this lawn will also be used by fire fighters, or this paved area has to be kept free of parking vehicles and other potential obstacles because of fire regulations), because it is about additional usage restrictions for parts of the outside areas. Admittedly in some cases you could also see them as proper features (“Feuerwehraufstellfläche”) if the space really isn’t used otherwise, it may be a question of interpretation Cheers Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
