Hi all,<br>
<br>
Been doing some searching trying to work out how to tag a life saving buoy, its basically enclosed in a enclosure located near a emergency phone.<br>
<br>
So after some googling I've come across the following.<br>
<br>
<a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:emergency%3Dlife_ring" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:emergency%3Dlife_ring</a><br>
<br>
<a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dlife_ring" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dlife_ring</a><br>
<br>
Both of which as far as I know do not come up on any maps.<br>
</blockquote></span>
Yep. Too few in number for most renders to pay any attention to.<span class=""><br>

<br>
I've gone for the emergency=life_ring as its the most used one and appears not to be a proposed element so should be good.<br>

That is the status. Presently 'unspecified' It is not 'approved' meaning the tagging mailing list has not votes on it... not a great loss.<br>
If it were more numerous it would be 'in use'. Looks like the tagging group preferred a different name .. but no one moved on it.. so use what is there.<span class=""><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<br>
Is there any other tags I should consider putting on it or is that it? (it seems too easy lol)<br>
</blockquote>
<br></span>
Any reference number ref= .. any 'operator' to who complaints about it missing? operator=<br>
<br>
-----------------------<br>
I'll think about expanding the english wiki .. the german one has a little more.<br>
