I think I'd try mapping them as a single parking lot and add parking spaces. Even though we don't currently have a way of tagging motorcycle spaces, the relative sizes would give a clue. Alternatively, two separate parking lots combined as a multipolygon. In this case I'd alter the outline of the motorcycle lot so that it shared a common way segment with the main lot rather than having that peculiar shape. I'd put that arbitrary line sort of equidistant from motorcycle spaces and car spaces, adjusted may so it delineates where cars can't (or wouldn't) go. Tricky. -- Paul ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

For disabled parking spaces I would also prefer having them mapped with their position.

Re: [Tagging] Tagging motorcycle parking
It would be advantageous to map them separately because one riding a motorcycle could make better use of OSM to navigate to and from the exact position of the applicable parking space.

[Tagging] Tagging motorcycle parking
I've seen some parking lots that have spaces specifically for motorcycles (i.e. that are not large enough for cars), although the lot as a whole is mixed-use. Is there no "direct" way to tag this (something like capacity:motorcycle)? Right now the only option seems to be to model the lot as two separate entities, one which excludes the motorcycle spaces, and one which is *only* the motorcycle spaces which could be amenity=motorcycle_parking. Is this really the best way? -- Matthew ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
