Status: deprecated

exclamation mark

This feature has been labeled as deprecated. The recommended replacement is: amenity=research_institute.
The reason is documented in Deprecated features. You are still free to continue to use or interpret this tag as you see fit since OpenStreetMap does not have “banned features”.
Under no circumstances should you (semi-)automatically change “deprecated” tags to something else in the database on a large scale without conforming to the automated edits code of conduct. Any such change will be reverted.

The tag landuse=research has been used to tag an area used for research. The tags amenity=research_institute and office=research are the correct tags for areas used for research.

How to map

Draw the whole area and tag with landuse=research. If the area has a name then add it using name=*. More specific tags, such as the type of (research=*) should be added to the specific institutes, not the landuse.
