[Tagging] Tagging airport approach aid systems

[John Willis]

I would use navigation aid=*

I tagged a ton of Approach Aids (PAPI, localizers, VOR, etc) for Narita Airport (NRT) and the navigation aid subkey covers all of it and is very well documented. If you understand a pilot's airport diagram guide,  it's easy to tag the correct information.  Airmark=* might be in conjunction with  other tagging schemes, but navigation aid=* is the place to start.

How should I map the approach aid systems? Which landuse should I use for the underlying land, as this land is only maintained for the approach aid system, nothing else?
