Or if animals can’t drink it either, amenity=fountain seems ok. In general I believe we should have a property like trough=yes for situations where the water is collected in a trough and accessible to animals. Feel free to make up a generic fountain tag for this kind of fountain. If the water comes from a spring in loco, natural=spring should also be added Cheers Martin
