Missing a lot of vuggestuer and børnehaver

I am going through the list of vuggestuer and børnehaver in Aalborg Kommune and most of them are missing from the map. I estimate only 10–20% are currently mapped. I wonder if this is a local issue. Can you check in other areas what is the state?

It is a nice task for beginners so we can try getting new mappers involved. For reference I mostly do these things:

Area of the kindergarten (SDFI Cadastral map helps here):

amenity=kindergarten
name=Børnehaven Bakken
website=https://bakken.aula.dk
email=email@example.dk
phone=+45 xxxx xxxx

Add nursery=yes for vuggestuer, preschool=yes for børnehaver and both for integreret institution.

The building itself: building=kindergarten with entrance=main if I can figure out the location. The buildings are almost always mapped, I just retag them as kindergarten.

They are typically fenced in with: barrier=fence and there is a barrier=gate.

Jeg har kortlagt flere institutioner i Aalborg. Jeg har ikke markeret dem med preschool=yes, fordi der ikke foregår formel uddannelse. men ellers har jeg gjort det på samme måde du beskriver.

Do I just tag the building with entrance=main, or should I specify the location of the entrance? I am a newbie, but I want to help out.

“Add a node at the building outline and tag it with entrance=main.”

And yes, I would also say that the node should be placed at the correct location of the entrance.

Perfect. Of course, if I just place a node I will place it where I know the entrance is.

Thanks for the swift help!
