<br></div><div>I think this would be a generic tag for a single laboratory. (generic, because a laboratory will be very different according to what you are doing there, e.g. developping photos, medical research, medical analysis, developing motors, research on radio waves, ...). Even something like "chemistry_laboratory" will still be quite generic with respect to the different kind of actual chemical laboratories that there are in the world.<br>

For big/industrial research lab i would use<br>
"industrial=laboratory" + "laboratory=nuclear"<br>
inside a "landuse=industrial"<br></div></blockquote><div><br><br><br></div><div>in the case of nuclear I'd like agree, while not everyone conducting research for an industrial user, or owned by an industrial company will himself be considered industrial (IMHO). Maybe this something we should clarify / reach for consensus: what is "industrial" meaning ? In building law, industrial usage is typically opposed to research or administration usage, because you'd expect the latter to create less pollution, (noise, smell etc.) and they are therefor more compatible with residential requirements.<br>

For small ones (not industrial) :<br>
"building=laboratory" + "laboratory=nuclear"<br>
</div></blockquote></div><br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">what is your definition of an "industrial laboratory" and which other types would you like to be there? FWIW, I'd interpret this tag combination as a lab building for nuclear research or analysis, but I wouldn't necessarily expect a nuclear lab working inside (could also be a disused lab).<br>
