[Tagging] [RFC] Feature proposal - tagging solar panel trackers

[Clay Smalley]

Following discussion on the forum [1], I’ve developed a tagging proposal to
indicate the existence and type of solar tracker on solar panels and
thermal collectors.

Since I started last month at Global Energy Monitor, I’ve single-handedly
added thousands of instances of solar:tracking=* and have become the
majority user of it. There was no documentation of this tag at the time,
and the de facto tagging scheme had two redundant values describing the
same thing. As mapping coverage of this feature grows, it will need a
clearly defined set of tag values.

See the wiki page here, and discuss on the talk page:
