landuse	brownfield		Describes land scheduled for new development where old buildings have been demolished and cleared
landuse	cemetery		Place for burials. You can add religion=* (values listed in the place of worship page). Smaller places (e.g. with a church nearby) may use amenity=grave_yard instead.
landuse	commercial		Predominantly offices, business parks, etc.
landuse	conservation		Protected areas (Not approved) Alternate tagging of same thing: boundary=protected_area, protected_area=*
landuse	construction		"Under construction" site, should become something different once the construction is finished
landuse	depot		An area used as a depot for e.g. vehicles (trains, buses or trams).	currently not rendered by osm-carto
landuse	farmland		An area of farmland used for tillage and pasture (animals, crops, vegetables, flowers, fruit growing).
landuse	farmyard		An area of land with farm buildings like farmhouse, dwellings, farmsteads, sheds, stables, barns, equipment sheds, feed bunkers, etc. plus the open space in between them and the shrubbery/trees around them.
landuse	forest		Managed forest or woodland plantation (Other languages).
landuse	garages		One level buildings with boxes commonly for cars, usually made of brick and metal. Usually this area belong to garage cooperative with own name, chairman, budget, rules, security, etc.
landuse	grass		An area of mown and managed grass.
landuse	greenfield		Describes land scheduled for new development where there have been no buildings before. A greenfield is scheduled to turn into a construction site
landuse	greenhouse_horticulture		Area used for growing plants in greenhouses
landuse	industrial		Predominantly workshops, factories or warehouses
landuse	landfill		Place where waste is dumped.
landuse	meadow		A meadow or pasture.
landuse	military		For land areas owned/used by the military for whatever purpose
landuse	orchard		intentional planting of trees or shrubs maintained for food production
landuse	pasture		(Proposed in Proposed features/pasture:) An area of land primarily vegetated by grass, used for grazing.
landuse	peat_cutting		An excavation created by the removal of peat. Use landuse=quarry + resource=peat instead	currently not rendered by osm-carto
landuse	plant_nursery		intentional planting of plants maintaining for the production of new plants
landuse	port		coastal industrial area where commercial traffic is handled	currently not rendered by osm-carto
landuse	quarry		Surface mineral extraction
landuse	railway		Area for railway use, generally off-limits to the general public
landuse	recreation_ground		An open green space for general recreation, which may include pitches, nets and so on, usually municipal but possibly also private to colleges or companies
landuse	religious		Religious territory
landuse	reservoir		There was considerable confusion whether landuse=reservoir is deprecated, but it turned out to be not deprecated and landuse=reservoir is used much wider than "new" way natural=water + water=reservoir. It may be a good idea to tag the actual water body with natural=water + water=reservoir in addition or instead of landuse=reservoir. See also the approved water details proposal and pointers to discussion on talk page.
landuse	residential		Predominantly houses or apartment buildings
landuse	retail		Predominantly shops
landuse	salt_pond		A place where sea water is evaporated to extract its salt	currently not rendered by osm-carto
landuse	village_green		An area of common land, usually grass, in the centre of a village (quintessentially English – defined separately from 'common land' under the Commons Registration Act 1965 and the Commons Act 2006). This tag is more used to tag all sorts of mixed vegetation, mostly in urban areas. Hence the above definition probably needs to be adjusted to fit the real use of it.
landuse	vineyard		A piece of land where grapes are grown.
landuse	user defined		All commonly used values according to Taginfo
