Some work for the OpenStreetMap community in 2024… 😀🚰
“Free drinking water soon available in Belgium’s 100 largest train stations”: https://www.brusselstimes.com/belgium/810782/free-drinking-water-soon-available-in-belgiums-100-largest-train-stations-tbtb
So, how would you tag this ?
amenity=drinking_water
fountain=bottle_refill
access=yes
wheelchair=yes
fee=no
operator=NMBS/SNCB
#OpenStreetMap #Belgium #water #SNCB #NMBS

@Doudouosm @openstreetmap I’ve already mapped the one in #brugge : https://dev.mapcomplete.org/drinking_water.html?z=17.9&lat=51.1974274683557&lon=3.2177549901334714#node/11374108813

I have some more time. The tag literally reads “amenity=drinking_water”, meaning that one can get drinking water for personal use here. It does not imply the physical form of this, e.g. if it is a bubbler fountain or a water tap. In either case, the tagging for the wide variety of items isn’t very consistent…
@pietervdvn I see your point and I have to agree with your analysis. But, I think that adding a man_made=water_tap could be useful to differentiate it from a natural spring (even if we have a dedicated tag for those).
Yes, I looked into this as well, but there are apperently quite a few, contradictory ways to do this…
@mannivu @Doudouosm @openstreetmap eh, maybe? Maybe discuss this on the issue tracker…
@Doudouosm @openstreetmap (i happened to see it in another toot, while in the train station…)
