Use as a value rather than a key is more of a problem. ACCESS to the facility is a secondary matter. And I can give you examples where a disposal point will serve both boat and caravan traffic. The facility is a disposal point, rather than a 'waterway disposal point' and and I would be happy with the current few 'elsan' values in tags if that is how they are designated on the ground, with a separate generic amenity tag. This is perhaps where a waterways map would only support waterway activities, while a general map would link into the adjacent usage. What is needed however is consistency to using 'amenity' or some other key, or defining a key on it's own which is where the toilets:disposal is the most popular usage. In waterway terms, disposal of grey_water may well be separate to disposal of chemical toilet waste, so waste_disposal with the correct values may be a more generic solution to the problem. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
