It is not only about reserved parking lots for buses or vehicles. A
parking has no maintenance equipment; depots may even have whole
buildings designed for maintenance, storage or security. Also, the
depot may just be a storage area.

We proposed the use of "landuse" because it really seems that simple:
"what is the land used for?" "to deposit things, such as vehicles or
goods, and, in general, to take care of them". In this sense, it may
even include storage buildings - there's no need for a depot to be an
open-roofed parking lot.
