- Sounds good. Our Japanese OSM community is also getting very active, I think it would be very useful to map Onsens. MikeCollinson 13:09, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
- Lots of questions should be mentioned here, so you can map it a little bit more verbose: Is this a hot spring or is it a hot spring where you can take a bath, or does it have amenities that makes it easier to access it. Is it always there? Should this tag default to yes for any of those?Erik Johansson 14:35, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
- It seems like this combined with natural=spring and maybe temperature=* and/or bathing=y/n
- The purpose of hot spring and natural=spring are completely different. You search for a spring when you are thirsty, but a hot spring is more a tourist attraction. --Kslotte 19:26, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
- This seems to be used in 16 places. So, I'm moving this into 'Proposed features'. --Kslotte 22:24, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
- I agree - My country (Ecuador) has got lots of volcanoes so there's also many thermal springs (hot springs) where you can bathe. Probably you will be miraculously cured, too ;) At least the springs are important for tourism, so I definately think they should be mapped with a proper "attraction" symbol. Personally I like the symbol above, looks hot. One place I used natural=hot_spring is here: [1]. Arnotixe 21:27, 3 September 2010 (BST)
