[Tagging] Proposed feature - RFC - Military Bases

[Graeme Fitzpatrick]

As just posted on talk

Thanks. Yes, it should have a definition. How about:

A base is the (almost invariably) enclosed area where a military
establishment is located: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_base. It
will include a variety of buildings, facilities etc in the area, & may be
used by different branches of Military Service eg Army, Air Force. However,
they are different to a military=training_area, as that is where field
training, as opposed to classroom, takes place.

Yes, landuse=military will be a required tag, together with military=base

Thanks

Graeme
