[Talk-us] Tagging camp sites within campground

[Tod Fitch]

Looks like the proposed way of marking campsites within a campground is described at:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Extend_camp_site#Tagging_of_lots

which involves setting nodes at the individual sites tagged with camp_site=lot and lot:number=*

I see only 61 instances of camp_site=lot in tag info http://taginfo.openstreetmap.us/tags/camp_site=lot so it is not widely used (yet).

One of those uses is at http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=56.06624&lon=14.45492&zoom=17&layers=M The standard renderer(s) do not show these but if you browse the map data you will see the individual sites.

I can't make Nominatim find the individual lot:numbers either, so sites so coded will not be very useful for most map users. But, presumably, rendering and searching will follow if sufficient tagging using that schema is performed.

If method of tagging individual sites within a campground seems reasonable to the talk-us list, I'll go ahead and change McGill campground to use that and extend that to the nearby Pinos campground when I'm in the area later this month and can survey that information
