Why not a more generic value like access=attendee? This could also be used for parking places designated for conference, sports or church attendees. We are also still missing a value representing a superset of delivery/guests/employees/customers/students/etc. I mean all that are involved in the facility in some way. In German speaking countries, many roads are designated for "Anliegerverkehr" or "Anrainerverkehr", which means all persons who intend contact to abutters. This differs from access=destination, which also includes people who intend to just walk around, and on the other hand excludes owners driving through. > 2) > entrance=inter-building - an entrance that is designated for only moving > between buildings in a facility, even if physically accessible from outside. > Usually on the ends of an outdoor walkway considered “indoors" because of > cultural custom rather than physical access restriction (IE: indoor shoes > required). Not to be used on normal outdoor pathway entrances. The term "inter-building" seems too narrow to me. I guess you could also use the entrance to have a cigarette, then return to the same building. Some smoking areas or terraces are not connected to another building at all. We could think about some access=* tag like access=checked-in, but this would get us to mapping processes instead of geographical data. I think that specifying one entrance=main is sufficient for everyday needs. Those who are familiar with the facility already know which entrance when to use, and those who are not should head to the main entrance. -- Friedrich K.
