A University building contains multiple schools/faculties/departments. There are planned to be tagged a node for each faculty. What tags should be added for each faculty? I have thought of:
name (of the faculty)
operator (the university)
department/faculty=* (topic of study)
Validation software is unhappy with this approach, and map renders do not show the nodes. Is this a problem with my choice of tags, or with the software?
For me, a university is a large “company” and not a physical object that one can map. In my city we map faculties and departments with “amenity=university” because universities are spread in the city and have many buildings.
For example:
amenity=university
name=Faculty of something
operator=University of OpenStreetMap
What software do you mean? Every feature in OSM has to have a main tag. Tagging like
name=
operator=
department=*
won’t render in any application or map because there is no main tag.
It is not clear what are faculty= and department= keys for and what should they have as a value.
