square, triangular and pentagonal seem to be the three that are out there. i'm not sure the size is that important, the wrenches in use seem to be adjustable. other tagging notes while we're at it: i have been using a few other tags in the capital district of new york. i separate out pond because water source is really a different thing than the type of hydrant; i've seen dry_barrel pillar hydrants used with a pond water source. and i generally distinguish between the two major variations of the pillar hydrant. fire_hydrant:type=dry_barrel wet_barrel pipe fire_hydrant:water_source=main pond stream if a locality is using the NFPA paint scheme it's possible to discern the class of hydrant from the color of the caps. in the US an AA hydrant has been flow tested and shown to have a very high flow rate. A, B & C are successively weaker hydrants. firemen have been known to ignore C hydrants and go find better ones to hook up to. fire_hydrant:class=AA out of service hydrants are supposed to clearly marked, either with a tag on the outlets, or by covering them with a bag: in_service=yes the colors of the bonnet (top) and caps on the outlets may or may not convey useful information. depends entirely on the jurisdiction. colour:bonnet=white colour:cap=red richard -- rwe...@averillpark.net Averill Park Networking - GIS & IT Consulting OpenStreetMap - PostgreSQL - Linux Java - Web Applications - Search _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
