Status: de facto

For places where a boat (canoe/kayak/stand up paddleboard/row boat/paddle-craft) is carried to and from the water use. It's used for spots without a ramp.

It can be a canoe rest area, a canoe station or a transfer point. It should be signposted or structurally prepared for it.

For places where there is a ramp for launching a boat into water, use leisure=slipway instead.

How to map

Draw a node node at the edge of the water where the boat will be put in or out and add canoe=*.

Add any path, steps, pier or highway=* leading to the node to facilitate routing.

Rendering

Example canoe-put in.png

OpenStreetBrowser renders objects of interest to paddlers (example). To enable the categories, expand: Leisure, Sport and Shopping > Outdoor activities > Paddling:

  • Paddling Routes
  • Paddling Amenities
  • Paddling Hazards

JOSM shows an icon.

Clean up

The following Overpass Turbo queries can be used for migrating to the canoe=* key.

whitewater to canoe

Likely because of OsmAnd's support of the whitewater schema, the whitewater key has been used in many places, where canoe would be more appropriate. Rather than map for the renderer, please upvote and comment on the request for OsmAnd to add support for the canoe key.

nwr["whitewater"];

slipway to canoe=put_in;egress

Presumably as they are rendered by Mapnik, many places have been tagged as leisure=slipway which would more accurately be tagged as canoe=put_in;egress .

nwr["leisure"="slipway"];
