The Feature Page for the approved proposal Parking can be located at Tag:amenity=parking.

This proposal seems to have been superseded in part by Proposed features/More Parking Spaces

Rationale

I hereby propose an extension to the already existing "amenity=parking" tag. As there are several kinds of parking lots, users should be able to tag those differences. The need for this has already been identified in Parking#Open_Issues.

Description

The existing "amenity=parking" tag is extended with three new keys: "parking", "fee" and "disabled_spaces". "parking" describes the kind of (car) park. "fee" shows if there is a fee to pay. The amount of money to pay should not be included. Finally, "disabled_spaces" should be used, if there are spaces reserved for disabled people.

In general, we could also include the tags "parking=park_ride" and "parking=bicycle", but there are already tags for those purposes.

Tags

All tags could be applied to nodes or areas.

Tag Description
amenity=parking Generic tag for a parking area.
parking=type Where type could be multi-storey, underground or surface (default). Could also be park_and_ride (see park and ride)
fee=boolean (yes/no) Default value is no (?)
disabled_spaces=yes/no/number Defines whether or not dedicated disabled parking spaces are available, usually reserved only for holders of a disabled parking permit ('blue badge' in the UK). If known, the number of spaces can be specified.

Examples/Rendering

These icons are just a proposal. I leave it to the renderers to decide the amount of information they want to display.

I made an icon for multistorey, not knowing about this page, but using the already existent icon for parking as template. It is this one, so if you like, use it instead (for grafic-continuity): Parking garage.svg Dieterdreist 19:25, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
