hi ian, maning, tagging health centers as public building or doctor's clinic would probably be correct in keeping with generic tagging, but it would be more useful if they are tagged specifically as "health centers". i've been convincing my boss at the national telehealth center, UP Manila, to use openstreetmap.organd this would be a good use case for us.
ian, if both health centers and police outposts are tagged as public buildings, how do we differentiate them? there's value in distinguishing the health centers as such, and we'd like to be able to work with that data to help direct patients to the nearest one.
