I spotted a more interesting case in the pharmacy register: "HMP Durham" (i.e. the prison). I agree with mapping the pharmacy location in a hospital. Not only good for finding which building it is, but also human reverse geocoding, e.g. "I'm somewhere outside the hospital, by the pharmacy...

Given the size of larger district & regional teaching hospitals I think it will always be sensible to map the location of the pharmacy. For instance I've only recently discovered where decent coffee shops are in one my Mum was an in-patient for 2 weeks, and I have no idea where the pharmacy is

In my experience there are certain prescription which I can only get fulfilled by a hospital pharmacy (those written by a consultant). I've never tried to get my regular prescriptions at such locations, so possibly we need a tag to discriminate between them. In a large teaching hospital it's

Are the some hospitals that do not have pharmacies? Would these be the smaller clinics, or would they be tagged differently anyhow? Tim On 15 May 2016 at 21:51, Andrew Black wrote: > I notice the list of registered pharmacies includes hospital pharmacies. > Not

Fantastic tool! Thanks so much Robert. 2. If it's a big supermarket or shopping centre, it's generally a polygon. So it's possible to add a POI which is the amenity. In case the supermarket is already a POI, your option, as written as well in the OSM wiki discussion, i.e. pharmacy=yes could work

This quarter's Healthcare project doesn't seem to have got as much traction as the Schools one. Possibly due to the fact that there's isn't a single obvious data-source to employ, and there's little scope for arm-chair mapping. I posted previously about a comparison tool I built for
