This key allows the specification of the maximum time that it is allowed to:
- park your car
- moor your boat
- stay at a campsite
etc.
Examples
- amenity=parking + maxstay=30 minutes
- amenity=parking + maxstay=1 hour
- amenity=parking + maxstay=2.5 hours
Time conditional restrictions (also known as disc parkings) can be tagged by using 'Time and date' condition:
- maxstay:conditional=1 hour @ (08:00-18:00) (or maxstay= 1 hour + maxstay:conditional=no @ (18:00-8:00), depending on whatever it is better for simple data consumers to show sometimes wrong "no maxstay" or sometimes wrong "1 hour maxstay")
- amenity=parking + maxstay= 1.5 hours + access:conditional=no @ (Su,PH) . Maxstay is overruled by access conditions. In this case, parking is generally allowed for 90 minutes, but no parking on Sunday and public holidays.
Maxstay=0
Some mappers indicate a maxstay of 0. This might mean either of the following things:
- there is no sign indicating a maxstay. This can be indicated unambiguously with unsigned=maxstay
- it is forbidden to stay, only stop. This can be indicated with maxstay=load-unload
- it is permitted to stay for an unlimited period. This can be indicated with maxstay=no or maxstay=unlimited
- access is not allowed at all - use access=*, possibly also with access:conditional=* for that
maxstay without unit
Values such as maxstay=180 are among the most popular, but meaning is unclear or difficult to interpret. The value of maxstay should always include a unit, as no default value (such as days, hours or minutes) can be assumed!
