A transportation mode (a.k.a vehicle category) can be added as subkey to mark the number of trucks or buses a parking lot can accommodate.
Or, e.g. in bicycle parking, number of spots, designed explicitly for cargo bikes. |
capacity:persons=*
|
number |
|
Defines how many persons can be carried, used for example together with highway=elevator. If it's obvious that the maximum number of persons of a feature is meant, just use capacity=* for it.

capacity:persons=*capacity:caravans=*capacity:tents=*capacity:pitches=*capacity:beds=*capacity:rooms=*
|
number |

On campsites capacity=* is ambiguous thus use the suitable subkeys to distinguish between number of persons and number of pitches. For a tourism=guest_house you may use Simple_Indoor_Tagging.

capacity:pupils=*capacity:teachers=*capacity:classrooms=*
|

Undocumented keys - Number of pupils/students and teachers a school is built for. Almost all occurrences are from few imports of data. |
