Adding maxheight to parking garage entrance/exit

Open cicku opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

A lot of garage entrances/exits have height restriction. Tagging the service road towards the entrance is not very accurate, so I would like to propose this change.

Is there consensus for mapping height restrictions on the entrances of parking facilities? I don't see it mentioned on the wiki.

FWIW, about 7% of amenity=parking_entrance objects have also a maxheight tag (source: taginfo).

I think given 7% already have the tag, that's good enough consensus. I can't see why it would be an issue. I've added it to the wiki as an optional tag combination.

I agree that this looks like something the proposal simply forgot to include.[^1] But I still think that this repository is not the right place to fix a "mistake" in a tagging proposal. Also, the definition of the maxheight tag in the wiki also kind of contradicts the proposed usage (highlight by me):

The tag maxheight=* specifies the maximum height limit for vehicles using the way to which the tag is added

[^1]: Or, perhaps the intended way to tag such a height restriction would be to combine the parking entrance with a nearby placed barrier=height_restrictor node? I don't know.

Using the way?

Time to update the wiki.
