Description
A shop where shoes, boots and other footwear can be repaired. These shops sometimes repair other items, such as purses, as well. They are usually very small owner-operated shops.
Rationale
These shops are very useful and common throughout the world. They need their own tag.
The term shoe_repair was chosen instead of term cobbler primarily because it is more common and much more friendly to non-native speakers. It is also less ambiguous since the word cobbler is sometimes used to refer to shops that make custom shoes.
Tagging
Usage
Add a node tagged shop=shoe_repair in the center of the shop. Larger shops may be mapped as an area tagged as shop=shoe_repair.
Additional Attributes
| Tag | Description |
|---|---|
| name=* | The name of the shoe repair shop. |
| addr:housenumber=* | The street address of the shop. |
| addr:street=* | The street the shop is on. |
| addr:city=* | The city the shop is in. |
| addr:postcode=* | The postal code that the shop is in. |
| source=* | Where you got the data. |
Rendering
Shoe repair shops should be rendered as a pictogram consisting of a shoe with a hammer above it. They should only be rendered at very high zoom levels.
