> Treatment hubs (in patient + dispensaries+ testing): Are you sure you mean "inpatient?" An "inpatient" facility, in American English, is a hospital which has beds where patients are cared for overnight.
This would be mapped as amenity=hospital for the main feature, most likely. > primary hiv care (dispensaries+testing) You don't mention care by a nurse or physician, but I assume this is an amenity=clinic (with physicians and nurses) which also has an amenity=pharmacy in the same building. There might also be a healthcare=laboratory at the location. > testing centers/clinics (testing only) Is this a doctor's office, or is there just a nurse, or just a laboratory technician who can draw blood for the test? If there is a doctor, it might be an amenity=doctors. If there is just a laboratory for testing, that would be a healthcare=laboratory facility. For the speciality, it's possible to use something like healthcare:speciality=hiv if that's the only thing that the clinic treats. But here in Indonesia and back in the USA most clinics that treat HIV also offer treatment for other infectious conditions, so a different specialty like healthcare:speciality=infectious_diseases would usually be more correct. I see that in the Phillipines the tag "disease:hiv=yes" has been used: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/disease%3Ahiv#map In Indonesia and the USA you can get an HIV test at just about any healthcare=laboratory and larger clinics and all hospitals. But if you can only get this done at some specialized places in the Phillipines, you could consider adding a tag like "hiv_testing=yes/no" for clinics, doctor's offices, and laboratories. Similarly, in the USA it's normal to be able to get hiv medications from standard pharmacies. But if they are only available from a few pharmacies in your country, you could add a tag like "hiv_medication=yes/no" to an "amenity=pharmacy" facility. It looks like "medical_service:antiretroviral_therapy=yes" has been used in combination. That seems overlong and complex, so it would not have been my first choice: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/medical_service%3Aantiretroviral_therapy -- Joseph Eisenberg On 4/13/20, Warin <61sundow...@gmail.com> wrote: > At present there is the key healtcare. > > https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:healthcare > > Some initial thoughts? > > healthcare:specialty=HIV_testing > > healthcare:specialty=HIV_treatment > > HIV dispensary ... would be a pharmacy? > > amenity <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:amenity>=pharmacy and > dispensing <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:dispensing>=HIV > > ???Hopefully there will be better ideas. > > On 13/4/20 4:32 pm, Mikko Tamura wrote: >> Good day, fellow OSM tagging experts.
