it is a function, not a building type. A building type would be tower, semi detached house, condominium, flat, basilica, etc. For a more extensive list have a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_building_types (I didn't check this for errors) > How about > > building=yes > building:use=tourist_information why attach information about the use under information about the building? IMHO the two should be kept separate as we did in the past. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
