My first reaction was "doesn't zoo=enclosure do this?", but apparently, that tag is for the type of zoo that has enclosures, not for the animal exhibits themselves. I'm actually surprised we don't have a good way to tag these.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Why not use animal=* and/or species=* directly? When combined with your proposed attraction=animal, it would have clear meaning. The species tag is approved, and has language suffixes, i.e. species:en, species:de, species:pl etc. The animal tag doesn't have the language suffix, but it seems like that could be added easily. I could see, for example, an enclosure being tagged both animal=giraffe and species="giraffa camelopardalis", which would allow renderers to show both the common name and the scientific one.<br></div></div><div><br></div><div class=""><div class="" dir="ltr">On Sat, Dec 26, 2020 at 11:40 AM Mateusz Konieczny via Tagging <<a href="mailto:tagging@openstreetmap.org" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">tagging@openstreetmap.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex" class=""><div><div>Many people are interested in mapping zoo detail, especially where given animal<br></div><div>has an enclosure<br></div><div><br></div><div>It would be desirable to render it on many maps, likely also general purpose maps<br></div><div>(as in zoo areas in high zooms it is among the most important info).<br></div><div><br></div><div>As many people are enthusiastic about mapping this, it would be nice to have<br></div><div>way to map it properly.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Sadly current situation is sad, see<br></div><div><a target="_blank" href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:attraction%3Danimal" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:attraction%3Danimal</a><br></div><div><a target="_blank" href="https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/3775" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/3775</a><br></div><div>for details.<br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Current methods:<br></div><div>(1)<br></div><div>tourism=attraction<br></div><div>name=name of species<br></div><div><br></div><div>is both stretching tourism=attraction, using it as "I want label here"<br></div><div>and misusing name tag<br></div><div><br></div><div>(2)<br></div><div>attraction=animal<br></div><div>species=scientific name of species<br></div><div><div><br></div><div>not rendered, not providing data for rendering it<br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>My proposed schema:<br></div><div><br></div><div>attraction=animal - to mark place where animals are kept in captivity<br></div></div><div>species:name - common name of species kept there, in a local language<br></div><div><div><br></div></div><div>It would<br></div><div>- avoid stretching existing tags<br></div><div>- avoid tagging for renderer<br></div><div>- allow to have OSM based maps including zoo details<br></div><div><br></div><div>(triggered by helping new mapper who wanted to map zoo details)<br></div></div><div>_______________________________________________<br></div><div> Tagging mailing list<br></div><div> <a target="_blank" href="mailto:Tagging@openstreetmap.org" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tagging@openstreetmap.org</a><br></div><div> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging</a><br></div></blockquote></div></blockquote><div><br></div> </body>
