[Tagging] Tagging established, unofficial and wild campings

[Jan van Bekkum]

Martin,

I agree with the proposal to have a different main tag for informal sites;
something like tourism=wild_camp. I guess some kind of RV/trekking
attribute would work as well, What we now are looking for is the proper
distinction between 1, 2 and 4. It should be one attribute key to
distinguish between the 3 cases. Does standard/basic/non-designated cover
what we look for?

I don't have a strong opinion about 6. In the earlier discussion people
felt it is important that is is mapped in some way.

Regards,

Jan

Regards,

Jan
