Re: [talk-ph] Mapping Suggestion: Add details/amenities to gas stations
Just for clarification: 1. Is it necessary to add leisure=retail? 2. Is it OK to just put the addr:* tags to the amenity=fuel polygon instead of both the shop=convenience and amenity=fuel?

Re: [talk-ph] Mapping Suggestion: Add details/amenities to gas stations
1. Is it necessary to add leisure=retail? Not mandatory. It's just a suggestion. An amenity=fuel tag alone does not render any polygons in the main Mapnik style so a landuse=retail makes the gas station's location more visible. 2. Is it OK to just put the addr:* tags to the amenity=fuel polygon instead of both the shop=convenience and amenity=fuel? Well, there isn't any fixed convention on when and where to add addr:*=* tags but I add them just the same to the shop=convenience node so that they become more searchable using Rally's proposed workaround for the Garmin map. This is especially true for 7-Eleven's since 7-Eleven is just a partner establishment to Caltex and not under Caltex management. For Petron Treat, Shell Select, and others, I guess only putting the addr:*=* tag on the amenity=fuel object is OK.

[talk-ph] Mapping Suggestion: Add details/amenities to gas stations
Hi guys, Here's another mapping suggestion: add details/amenities to gas stations (amenity=fuel[1]). Of course we should map co-located restaurants or shops within gas stations but we should also map the attached convenience stores (shop=convenience[2]) like Shell Select, 7-Eleven/Caltex Mini Mart, Petron Treats, and Total's Cafe Bonjour. Add opening_hours=24/7 if the convenience store is open 24/7. And if the gas station has a public CR, add a toilet node (amenity=toilets[3]). This is important since not all gas stations (especially in the provinces) have convenience stores or toilets and these are things that motorist would want to know. If there is an available satellite image, you should mark the whole lot of the gas station as a closed polygon and add the tag landuse=retail. As an example, here's Shell along the southbound side of Macapagal Blvd: http://osm.org/go/4zhExjoQh-- Aside from the Yellow Cab store there (which is open 24/7 so it has a tag opening_hours=24/7), the CR and the Shell Select store were added as nodes. The Shell station itself[4] is a polygon with the following tags: addr:city=Parañaque addr:street=Pres. Diosdado Macapagal Boulevard amenity=fuel landuse=retail name=Shell opening_hours=24/7 And the tags for the Shell Select node[5] are the following: addr:city=Parañaque addr:street=Pres. Diosdado Macapagal Boulevard name=Shell Select opening_hours=24/7 shop=convenience Happy Mapping!
