Well, the usage of amenity=fitness_centre over leisure=fitness_centre is
much too small that I think we can go with either option.

I myself prefer leisure=fitness_centre because amenity=* is overloaded and
I agree with the sentiment that fitness is more of a leisure thing that
people do when they have free time.

I agree that sport=* cannot be used on its own. It is an attribute. It
should be combined with a more physical tag (amenity=*, leisure=*).

leisure=pitch can be used as the main tag.
leisure=sports_centre can be used as a main tag.
leisure=fitness_station too.

We can use these tags for most fitness venues, except for parts of
containing sports centres. One example is the aforementioned fitness centre
in a rowing club.

While leisure=fitness_centre is a specific solution for fitness rooms, it
won't work for squash rooms, tennis halls, soccer halls etc. Therefore, we
might want to look for some more generic way to tag parts of sports centres.

As it is some kind of indoor mapping, room=* comes to mind. But what if a
whole complex of rooms is dedicated to one sport?

Thought about that, too. Problem I see is that membership could just as

The leisure tag is for places people go in their spare time.

So I'd say that's exactly what you are doing. You are not at work or on 
holidays. You could just as much edit OpenStreetMap or pursue any other 
hobby instead.

Why not? Some rowing clubs spend more money on exercise machines than on
boats. They are quite proud of their included fitness centers.

I like the idea of tagging the clubs's entire property as
leisure=sports_centre + sport=rowing, and additionally sport=fitness (or
sport=gymnastics) to the building or room dedicated to that. But I wouldn't
tag it as a leisure=sports_centre on its own. It is only part of the

Are you suggesting that a typical fitness centre would be tagged as
leisure=fitness_centre. But if it is located in a sports_centre, it would
have a different tag? Wouldn't that approach lead to some confusion? Why
not just tag any fitness facility within a sports_centre as
leisure=fitness_centre. Water fountains, benches, parking, etc. aren't
tagged any different just because they are located inside a sports centre.

I like the original proposal leisure=fitness_centre. It would work no
matter where it is located.

But are people searching for that the same way? If I look for stuff like 
that I'm probably somewhere outside and just look what's near me. Then I 
probaby realize pretty fast if it is public or private.


Would you tag a sauna inside a sports/fitness centre with shop=sauna or 
rather sauna=yes?


On the other hand if I look for a fitness centre I'm probably at home I 
want to find one to work out and see what's available in the city, how 
close it is, can I reach it with public transport, is there parking, 
look up the website for pricing etc. And having all kind of private 
gyms would not give a good overview.



I like the original proposal leisure=fitness_centre. It would work no matter 
where it is located.


It certainly could, but then I would say we also need some kind of 
subtag to indicate if you just sign up for a gym membership or if you 
have to join some kind of larger sports club. Then do you tag this as 
individual node in a sports centre?


fitness_centre:access=membership, fitness_centre:access=club? private?
Or have something like fitness_centre=yes? (Not sure as we already have 
sport=*)


Honestly didn't think that much about this, because I just wanted a tag 
in the first place ;D

I agree a documented fitness tag is needed.

Looking at the sport tag, it is normally associated with the leisure tag.
Sport isn't a physical tag, where a baseball field is. I think the same
applies to fitness centers. You can survey a fitness center. Not a sport.
As a kid, I played baseball in a vacant lot.

The only other tag that would work is amenity=fitness_centre. Taginfo would
indicate that amenity is the most used.

Taginfo results

leisure=fitness_centre (and other spelling variations) = 452
(leisure=fitness_centre is used 440 times.)
amenity=fitness_centre (and other spelling variations) = 687
(amenity=fitness_center is used 507 times.)

My sense is most fitness centres are not associated with sports centres. To
keep it simple, lets tag fitness centres as either leisure or amenity. I'd
be happy to change the ones I've tagged to whatever the consensus is.

Early on I created a proposal at
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Fitness_Center. It
didn't seem to gain any traction and it was before I understood that
British English spelling was prefered. You are welcome to use any of the
proposal.

I wonder how we can tag fitness center attributes, such as pool, steam,
sauna/ etc. They very all over the place. Being able do documenting
features would allow health clubs sites to be included.


I would see this as a 2nd step, for the start I would really just like 
to be able to tag this in general. Then we also will get a better 
overview what's out there and what people like to tag.


I guess you could go for something like fitness_centre=* and define 
different types, but not sure if it's that clear, there will be some 
overlapping.


Or you do simple stuff like sauna=yes. Guess that depends a bit on how 
many tags we end up with.

Leisure is better than sport. Personally I don't consider going to a
fitness center a sport. Amenity is the only other  real option but it is
overloaded. And as you said, fitness centers is a leisure time actively for
most of us.
