[Tagging] amenity=veterinary: size and animals
Hi! The tag amenity=veterinary is used for veterinaries. But there exists not (documented) possibility to tag the size of the facility or what animals are treated. Taginfo shows that a very limited time the size was tagged with veterinary=hospital. I would suggest the following: * veterinary=doctor/clinic/hospital * veterinary:for=animal;animal or alternatively veterinary:for:animal=yes/no An alternative to veterinary=size would be veterinary:size=size.

What do you think? Doctor should not be used, that implies treatment of humans. A person qualified to treat animals is a Vet, or Veterinary Surgeon.

What value would you suggest for a veterinary, where only one person treats animals? ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

It reminds me this proposal: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Beer_details This list of animals should be used in case of specialized vets, e.g. some vets only treat horses. Or to put it the other way around: there should NOT be a list like veterinary:for:hamster=yes, veterinary:for:mouse=yes, veterinary:for:rabbit=yes, . ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

Especially as a specialization on certain animals is much more common than a specialization on e.g. dermatology among vets. ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
