of course, it might also have its own fire department, police, shops,
restaurants, traffic enforcement, railway station (goods), bus routes,
sports facilities, energy and heating/cooling plant, ...
see for instance here:

> A working scheme for tagging will have room for these ideas too.


most of the features can be mapped just like anywhere else, that is
landuse=industrial for the landuse, then probably a site-relation, all
pois and areas as usually, ...

Do you suggest to add specific tags for factory "components" like
assembly lines, soldering facilities, bottling plants, ...? This will
become very extensive for all kind of factories that exist, but why
not?

cheers,
