Summary

A parking_aisle is an area in a parking lot in between parking spaces so that vehicles can drive into and out of the spaces.

Although there is a amenity=parking tag available for parking areas, the amenity=parking tag does not show the layout of the parking lanes themselves. With the increasing use of aerial and satellite imagery in OSM it is now feasible to map out the layout along with entrance and exits of the parking area.

Reasoning

For Main roads in a parking area highway=service works fine as described in Parking, but for individual lanes they are too wide and clutter the area. Take this area for example http://openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.46965&lon=13.36844&zoom=16&layers=B00FT It looks decent at zoom=17,18, but when you zoom out to 14,15,16 the roads clutter together. That's why service=parking_aisle would not be viewable beyond zoom=17 (16 at most).

How to Map

ElementWay.png To map parking_lane add the highway=service tag. Also, add the service=parking_aisle tag to it. Add a oneway=* tag if appropriate.

Alternate tags

Example & Description

Width is thinner than highway=service roads.

Viewable at Only zoom=17 and 18.

  • I approve this proposal I approve this proposal. service is enough but I'm not opposed if someone want to add more info (and in the name of what if the tagging schema is following the consensus ?) --Pieren 09:41, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
