This proposal is for a set of tags to describe lifeboat stations and their lifeboats.
Lifeboat stations
Lifeboat stations should be tagged with amenity=lifeboat_station. The following tags can be used to describe the lifeboat station:
Key | Value | Element | Comment | Example | Icon |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
name | * | Name of the lifeboat station | |||
operator | * | Who operates the lifeboat station? e.g. "RNLI" for the UK's Royal National Lifeboat Institution | |||
website | * | Website with information about this station. |
Lifeboats
For lifeboats which are housed inside the lifeboat station, the below tags should be applied to the node representing the lifeboat station itself. If the boat is permanently afloat, tag it with amenity=lifeboat and apply the tags to that node:
Key | Value | Element | Comment | Example | Icon |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
name | * | Name of the lifeboat (only when tagging amenity=lifeboat nodes - use lifeboat:name when the lifeboat is housed in the station) | |||
lifeboat:name | * | Name of the lifeboat (only when tagging amenity=lifeboat_station nodes) | |||
lifeboat |
|
The type of lifeboat. | |||
lifeboat:class |
etc. |
The official class of lifeboat. | |||
operator | * | Who operates the lifeboat? e.g. "RNLI" for the UK's Royal National Lifeboat Institution | |||
website | * | Website with information about this lifeboat. |
Discussion
We should probably have a relation to link lifeboats to their stations.
