Talk:Tag:parking=multi-storey

Hi, all.

Just been doing some editing, and was looking at Parking tags. I noticed the tag in the screenshot, which seems to have a different spelling in the ID editor, than this Wiki description. The option in ID was 'multistory', rather than 'multistorey'; is this intentional? Hmm, I can't upload the screenshot in this editor. It is saved on my local machine.

Many thanks,

Underground Car Park/Multistory Parking

Does anyone have any examples to point to or experience mapping car parks that are either completely or entirely underground? Any tips or guidance on how to map these kinds of features? IanVG (talk) 13:05, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

Integrated in other buildings?

The description and images are focused on structures/buildings containing nothing but parking space.

However out here in the real world, parking is sometimes integrated into other buildings such as malls and office buildings, with access ramps and service ways for cars weaving past other parts of the building in every way imaginable . I've walked through supermarkets knowing that cars are parked both above and below me, and seen shop windows looking out onto rooftop parking . And those are the simpler cases . Also, getting GPS coordinates inside a parking structure is pretty difficult, forcing me (as a mapper) to guestimate the coordinates of points, ramps and walls.
