amenity=feet_washing_pool ? Is there anything better?
triggered by Note: 5156678 | OpenStreetMap
If I ask Linguee to translate, it proposes boot bath. However, Wikipedia has no corresponding article.
198 bath:type=foot_bath, but it’s not what you mean.
Then amenity=boot_bath, even if you take your boots off!
@Duja, it’s NOT a barrier (well cat=no :-)) . you have to go through.
By the way, the description of the pool close by is… strange!
Way: 90277118 | OpenStreetMap “its is not a swimming pool”
Considering the alternatives, I’m in favor of barrier=water (or a similar value, such as foot_wash) as originally tagged. It’s designed to act as a barrier (quote, A barrier is a physical structure which blocks or impedes movement.), to force bathers to wash their feet. And it’s typically small enough to map using a node rather than an area.
I browsed the Wiki category:barriers, as well as taginfo, but there’s nothing quite matching. barrier=ditch and barrier=steeplechase_jump are sort of related.
barrier=water is hopelessly generic and was used also for ford ( Changeset: 178173040 | OpenStreetMap )
also, it is NOT intended as a barrier, it is there to increase hygiene
it also does not impede or block movement
not sure why mapping it as a node is relevant
What about ford=yes?
Better than barrier=*.
makes as much sense as tagging swimming pool as ford=yes depth=3m vehicle=no recreational=yes
Sort of. It certainly blocks or impedes movement for wheelchairs and strollers (so it frequently has a bypass gate); as well as for bathers who fail to take off their shoes. Yes, it is there to increase hygiene, but not in an “optional” manner like a shower mounted somewhere on the side.
And I’m not saying that water is an ideal value. However, I find barrier much more fitting than an amenity or another nebulous key. The barrier=water invented by the original mapper just has this nice duck tagging flair to it.
amenity=desinfectant_bath ?
We do have https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dfootwear_decontamination for the same concept, but boots not bare feet
amenity=foot_wash seems most straightforward and in-line with existing tag language.
usually it is just water in these, I agree with @Lumikeiju amenity=foot_wash seems in line with tagging in general
