entering by foot
How do I tag entrances to the parking garage that you use to enter the parking and get your car. Erik Johansson 13:58, 4 October 2011 (BST)
- you use parking_entrance for all entrances. the connected highway defines, who the target group is. for example, if the node with parking entrance connects to a highway=service, service=parking_aisle, it can be assumed that it is an entrance for cars, if the connected way is tagged with highway=footway it is for people by foot. --Flaimo 18:32, 4 October 2011 (BST)
- Not sure how, but I would not use amenity=parking entrance for that Mateusz Konieczny (talk) 10:12, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
- I would not intuitively use parking entrance for entering on foot either, although it is documented like this. I have read the original proposal from 2011 and seen that a lot of brainpower went into it, including designing concepts of relations. But why not just entrance plus a site relation for the foot entrances? I don't understand this aspect. --Alfons234 (talk) 06:42, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
Layer versus Level
Current text says in the Usage section: While underground or multi-storey parking facilities could be mapped using amenity=parking_space in combination with a layer tag, [...]
. However I believe the key level=* is probably the correct one in this case, instead of layer=*. --Jgpacker (talk) 19:47, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
parking=* type
Thanks @geozeisig for adding the parking type. However, why should it be restricted to non-surface parking? --Polarbear w (talk) 16:14, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
- The sentence "Parking entrances are only used for underground or multi storey parking, not for surface parking." was on this page from the beginning, it wasn't added by Geozeisig. --Tordanik 18:59, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
- Correct, though my question was not who added it, but if it is necessary to restrict its usage. parking=surface is being used >1000 times currently on nearly 2% of the mapped entrances. --Polarbear w (talk) 20:58, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
- It is apparent from the arrangement of the roads at parking=surface where the driveways are. This is different for a parking multi-storey and an underground car park. For example, the East Site Mall on the 3rd and 4th floor has a parking level. But it only makes sense to draw the entrance to show in a 2D map. But that's just my opinion, if we want to change it we should discuss it elsewhere. --geozeisig (talk) 08:32, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
