A beehive is built mostly of wood and is used for keeping honey bees (inbreeding, raising, rearing).
A group or cluster of beehives is called apiary or bee yard.
A bee farm may have one or more apiaries.
How to map
A hive can be mapped as a node 
, tagged man made=beehive .
Apiaries are preferably mapped as an area 
, tagged landuse=apiary.
One still may map individual beehives within the apiary as man made=beehive nodes.
- Apiaries may also be tagged with information about capacity.
Additional tags
- operator=* - Company or beekeeper's name
