I think what's being referred to here is "real-time parking guidance". So you have 3 multi-level parking garages in city centre, and a sign will tell you the current remaining capacity in each of them, to help you choose the best one. It's in The Other Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_guidance_and_information In Toronto I've seen a guidepost=vms (variable-message sign) https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3396319411 though this does not appear to be standard. >> Is there any kind of tagging?

There's nothing in the wiki about parking guidance displays. What I did find useful was checking how things are mapped in various well-mapped cities. For parking availability guidance, I'd guess I would suggest checking Munich, maybe Oslo? --Jarek _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
