Auf English:
The language barrier has been high here: help from someone fluent in both
German and English is needed
Each new proposal page so far has brought more confusion.

In the USA/Canada/Mexico there are three main connection types for dumping
a toilet holding tank:

   - Suction pump-outs for boats
   - A 3 inch round drain hose for grey and blackwater from mobile home
   holding tanks
   - A flush basin for dumping portable wheeled cassette holding tanks.  In
   the UK the last item is sometimes called an Elsan Point.

Often, a washing hose is available.  Rarely, a septic leach field is in use
and there are various restrictions on the type of chemical used in the
holding tank.

This feature is not rendered on any map I have found, at least in part
because of the severe fragmentation of the tagging styles.
