The tagging proposal to date imagined only the shared dump stations of
the type that would (in years past) have appeared on AAA maps.
If it's to be used for backyard or per-site hookups, the proposal needs
adjustment.

Mapping a hookup in someone's backyard offers* the same pitfalls as mapping
their home toilet and recycling bin.*
The next level of private is guests only, which I called destination.

*The cases seem to be:*
per-site hookup, available only to registered guests at the particular site
shared dump station, available only to guests of the destination
shared dump station, available for drive up
shared dump station, free

*Tagged as:*
Way/node or
As a tagged property of a mapped place (e.g. campground, store, fuel
station), without a specific position.
As a tagged property of a numbered camp slot (e.g. sites 1-22 offer
per-site hookups).


A caravan site might have 200 private hookups. We don't want the hookups to
be rendered at the same level as the central dump station.
Backyard dump stations should render even less prominently, if they are
even mapped at all.

what do you think you're going to be touching on your way to the sink?

access= suggestion should use standard access tags; I don't see a problem
with access=private as this could be handy for micromapping a property.
 access=public should probably be access=yes.

 Let's not forget that tagging isn't the renderer.  If a renderer can't dim
 or hide access=private on such a POI when it's not desirable to display a
 private sanidump, it's the renderer, not the tagging, that's broken.


Let's not forget that humans are mappers.  The shared sanidump at the local
caravan site might well get tagged access=private.
Or maybe access=private will be used for the per site hookups.


*The cases seem to be:*
private backyard dump stations.
per-site hookup, available only to registered residents (at a long term
residential trailer park or dock).
per-site hookup, available only to registered guests at a leisure
destination

 Probably not as this is almost certainly too vague.


There are already hundreds of those, mostly in New Zealand, that seem to
work fine.   When looking at a list of
campgrounds, it's helpful to know which ones have a sanitary dump station,
even if those campgrounds are only
mapped as nodes.

I meant geographically too vague, as we're talking about navigating
something in roughly the same dimensions, weight and steering dynamics as a
PSV or a HGV in many cases.  It's way faster, safer and easier to plan it
so you can reach it going forward than it is having to back up for it,
after all.

Are there any rendering packages that can be set to render private objects 
for only a preset list of operator tag values? So, if an association of 
recreational vehicle owners has waste disposal stations only for registered 
users, a map generated by that association could show dump stations open to 
the general public, plus dump stations open to their members, while not 
showing dump stations open only to members of competing organizations?

Right (or customers).

Reasonable, as it's often hard to get high enough imagery to narrow it down
further and most people (I'm certainly not and I probably care more than
most) aren't likely to break out the theodolite and start doing trig...


 Each of those cases needs clear tags if we hope mappers to use them
 consistently.  Your suggestions?


I think not trying to redefine access=* for just this situation is a start.

Yes, that can be be done in almost any of the OSM rendering sytems.


Note the tagging proposal on the table uses network= for regional
networks of dump stations.

A good RV dump station map would use colors or some such:
  Free == Green
  Paid, drive up == Blue
  Plan ahead (join the network first) == Purple
  Destination only == Gold
  Backyard Dump Stations == Black

A given recreational vehicle owners association could filter the map and
eliminate non-matching network locations.

just the one:

The voting process helps to refine tagging proposals: they often get better
