Hi all, some days ago I add to building's material wiki page, some attributes that I think would be usefull to calculate some things in case of earthquakes or flood emergencies. Also, could be usefull for some other things, like a census about rural housing materials, or some other activities from ngos or governmental officers like Housing and Sanitation Ministry in Peru, for example.
In wiki page about materials I added two tags about materials for buildings made from mud: "adobe" and "rammed earth" ("tapial" in spanish). https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:material Now, I have some doubts to share with you about wiki page "building:material". This page it's describe as values to tag building's "facade" and I think a wiki page for material strecuture of buildings is needed, maybe "key:material" is the wiki page I don't be sure... https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:building:material In ID, as value for buildings:material appears "mud", but mud is the value for "natural" tag, natural=mud https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Dmud For "roof:material" I added the value "palm_leaves" for this type of roof, very common in amazonian region, and others tropical places. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:roof:material So, I wanted to open this thread to share with you these issues and know what do you think about it. And, if you have other better ways to tagging materials of buildings, I linke to know them. Do you know how it is possible to add these values as presets in ID editor? Thanks for your attention!
