The military=academy tag should be used to map military installations where the primary purpose of the installation is to provide training and/or education to service members. This should be a dedicated installation, rather than simply a military=base where training is carried out amongst other functions. An example is Britannia Royal Naval College Dartmouth - a naval academy for trainee officers in the British Royal Navy.
Military schools for children should instead be tagged with military=school but only if they provide military cadet education.
How to map
 | Caution: mapping military installations is welcomed in OpenStreetMap, but may be prohibited by local law. Before mapping potentially sensitive sites such as these, please be aware of Section I b of the OSMF Terms of Use: "You are responsible for your own actions [...] OSMF generally cannot offer any protection, guarantee, immunity or indemnification." |
Draw the outline 
of the area, either as a single building or entire campus, depending on the installation.
