If, like me, you want to see fewer unnamed landuse areas in your
backyard, map more named landuse areas corresponding to retail and
residential developments. These areas not only reduce the pressure to
"fill in" the map visually but also add information about the shape
of these developments that's often difficult to obtain from other map
services.
What I'd like to see less of is the use of dubious tag combinations like
this:
landuse=retail
amenity=fuel
shop=convenience
name=Exxon
or whatever the brand might be. First, the convenience store and fuel
should be separately tagged; I tag the fuel canopy (or an area near the
pumps if no canopy) as being the fuel station, and the building as the
convenience store (which also gets the address data if known).
Convenience stores may be inside a landuse area, but shouldn't be tagged
on the same way as a landuse area as I understand it.
Dual-tagging a landuse area as a POI might make sense in some cases, but
I agree that dual-tagging the entire property as a gas station would be
misleading. In the U.S., a gas station is usually an amenity of a
convenience store or auto mechanic, not the other way around.
Anyhow, I was suggesting mapping combinations like the following:
Apartment complex: landuse=residential residential=apartments name=*
Mobile home park: landuse=residential residential=trailer_park name=*
Residential subdivision: landuse=residential residential=single_family
name=*
Office park: landuse=commercial name=*
Strip mall: landuse=retail name=*
Non-landuse alternatives wouldn't be as precise or informative or enjoy
as much existing software support. Along with quasi-landuse areas like
amenity=hospital and leisure=park, typical American sprawl would have
enough of this more specific kind of landuse area to ward off the
broader kind to some extent.
