Is there something underneath eg: a net?

One suggestion is barrier=boom (there's 30 of these):

https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/37418/tag-line-of-floating-buoys-near-weir-or-dam

other people have used barrier=net (423 of these) or barrier=shark_net (6 of these).

Continuing on with swimming areas, we've got a few on the GC that
consist of a floating boom suspending an underwater net, surrounding the
designated area. One of them then has a swimming raft in it:

In OSM, the boom's are currently marked as fences:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=18/-27.96790/153.41779, which
doesn't really seem right?

I can see reference in the wiki to an oil-boom, which is a floating boom
to contain oil spills, but not really appropriate.

Don't know if they'd be a pontoon either, because you can't really climb
up on it.

Any thoughts?

Graeme



Thanks

Graeme

    The swimming raft describes it exactly

    man_made=pontoon was my first thought but wasn't sure (was checking
    on a mobile device on the bus) so I'll use that.

    With tagging the ladder, the pontoons can rotate a fair bit so how
    sensitive is the position of something like a ladder?

    Swimming area is also something I plan on marking as these swimming
    areas do have buoys on like a cable around the perimeter marking the
    boundary.

    Thank you to everyone for their input so far, the help is very much
    appreciated.

        It would depend on whether we are talking about a floating jetty:

        <http://www.letsonslanding.com/images/IMG_4212dock_wide.jpg>

        or what our American friends would call a swimming raft:

        http://manitoulincedar.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/swim-raft-2013.jpg
        
<http://manitoulincedar.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/swim-raft-2013.jpg>

        The first one is a pier but the second one isn't.

        It seems that there are two ways to tag a swimming raft. The
        first is from OpenSeaMap seamark:type=pontoon

        https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:seamark:type%3Dpontoon
        <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:seamark:type%3Dpontoon>

        There's 36 of these. The other is man_made=pontoon (There's 87
        of these).

        Maybe swimming_area
