[Tagging] atms with names?

> In the USA, an A(M is usually a member of multiple networks, sometimes ten or more, and will usually have decals on the front of the machine identifying which networks it is a member of.  You can use the machine if your bank is a member of any of those networks, but may have to pay a surcharge if the bank operating the ATM is not your bank.


basically the situation in europe is the same or similar. There are
quite a lot of networks, national and international, where some of the
networks assure only the function of your card, while beeing a member
in others will reduce or eliminate the fee. An atm usually is part of
more then one network. Therefore I proposed to add Key:network to the
atm page.

This might not cover all needed information in all cases to decide
whether you will have to pay a fee, but it will help. Additionally
operator should be tagged for the bank that set up the atm, and maybe
name for the name of the individual machine. If there is also a brand
tag to be set can be valueated by the mapper and might depend on local
structures.

E.g. I could imagine something like
amenity=atm
operator=Berliner Sparkasse
brand=Sparkasse
network=Maestro;ec;cirrus
