Personally, I would tag most bus shelters as building=roof.
But for e.g. sun_shelter (which are usually just fabric spanned between poles) building=roof would be wrong.

Thanks for clarifying Jo - I think this is all ok as long as we give users the option to say whether they think their `amenity=shelter` is a building or not. For the bus shelters I could see it as either way but would not override a local mapper’s choice. Maybe we should start a separate thread for “what is a `building=*` really” because this is something I see frequent confusion over.

I guess most are about 2.3m high. If it is considered important I'll go out and measure one and start tagging that on them. But that still doesn't make them buildings. They are more like containers with glass wall panels and a metal roof on a slab of concrete. Relatively easy to move and relatively small in size.

Either the two other walls do not fully stretch from the ground to the roof or the shelter itself can be removed easily. https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=49.08680549357706 <https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=49.08680549357706&lng=9.078079866007897&z=17&pKey=90pd5WuYg8zOk_L8dxLFFQ&focus=photo> &lng=9.078079866007897&z=17&pKey=90pd5WuYg8zOk_L8dxLFFQ&focus=photo https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=49.08985722389377 <https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=49.08985722389377&lng=9.07931005221235&z=17&pKey=oXQHKqb3Lc3Ae9IXj-5PHw&focus=photo> &lng=9.07931005221235&z=17&pKey=oXQHKqb3Lc3Ae9IXj-5PHw&focus=photo https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=49.10616167487336 <https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=49.10616167487336&lng=9.121348618135698&z=17&pKey=8xUGL_VKp45sOfd9VW7dUw&focus=photo> &lng=9.121348618135698&z=17&pKey=8xUGL_VKp45sOfd9VW7dUw&focus=photo I would not use `amenity=shelter` at all and instead tag those as https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway=bus_stop highway=bus_stop public_transport=platform bus=yes shelter=yes bench=yes There is building=roof but I would not use it for such shelters. They are not treated as buildings by the cadastre, why should I do? (If they are larger and have no walls, they Anything that should show up on a 3D map needs a `building` tag and maybe a `height`. I think that nobody of us knows the whole world and that's why I ask you not to decide on the default values of the whole world. If local mappers think that a shelter is a building, they will tag it as such. If they think that it does not qualify to be a building, they will not add the tag. In iD, the things we provide as presets, and how we render those things on the screen influence how people map. It sounds like from the discussion that we should not assume that shelters are buildings, and instead provide a field so that mappers can decide. Once we provide this field, we can expect a lot of people to use it. (I’m trying to engage the tagging list a lot more so that people feel consulted when I change things in iD.)
