[OSM-talk-ie] What are your 'must map' features?

[Marc Gemis]

(although I do not map in Ireland):

* turn:lanes and destination signs, I find this very useful when they
are mapped.
* wayside shrines (or listed buildings in general) with photos on
Wikimedia Commons
* dog parks

I *really* like mapping / filling in details on electrical transformers (I'm the most recent editor of 2,274 of 2,285 transformers mapped in Ireland). I can smell them at 50 metres! :) Or rather, I've mapped so many I can tell in a neighbourhood where I am likely to find one.
