I started a discussion on this on the talk-us list but the best suggestion I've had, received off list, was to ask here on the tagging list.
My original thread is at http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-us/2013-June/011066.html Long story: While updating things in the Mt. Pinos area I found that some of the camp sites within a campground were tagged with amenity=parking and ref=SiteNumber. This seems wrong to me and clutters the typical rendering with parking icons where there is no real general purpose parking. See: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=34.81433&lon=-119.1004&zoom=17&layers=M I've tweaked things slightly, adding some missing roads and marking everything as seasonal as it is closed in winter, etc. But, so far, have left the camp site tagging unchanged. Looking around, I found a discussion on the talk-ca list that proposed addr:street=CampgroundName, addr:city=CampgroundName, addr:housenumber=SiteNumber See: http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-ca/2010-August/003211.html with an example at: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/5500386 This seems like "tagging for the renderer" as a campground is neither a street nor a city nor both. It does, however, show the casual map user where the individual sites are. Digging some more, it seems there was a page on the wiki regarding this but I don't see a consensus either on the page or in the associated discussion page and the page has been marked as abandoned. The tagging suggested there seemed a bit clunky too and not in keeping with other addressing conventions. See: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Extend_camp_site#Tagging_of_lots There were a very limited number of campgrounds marked this way, see http://taginfo.openstreetmap.us/tags/camp_site=lot One example is at http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=56.06624&lon=14.45492&zoom=17&layers=M (the standard renderers don't show these objects but you can browse the data to see the tagging. My current inclination would be to tag the individual campsites with addr:unit=SiteNumber and possibly addr:housename=CampgroundName but don't have any strong sense this is correct and am looking for guidance.
