Please display icon for leisure=swimming_pool + sport=swimming on the map

[geozeisig]

Please display leisure=swimming_pool + sport=swimming on the map. It could have the same icon as leisure=water_park but in blue color.

I think leisure=sports_centre + sport=swimming (#2018) would be better.

There's a discussion at Tagging currently, so we should make sure that the tagging is relevant.

[geozeisig]

Statistics:

• leisure=swimming_pool + sport=swimming there are about 40000 times. They are swimming pools outside as well as inside. Maybe a minimum size should be considered.

• leisure=sports_centre + sport=swimming there are about 8000 times. These are mostly indoor swimming pools.

leisure=swimming_pool + sport=swimming there are about 40000 times. They are swimming pools outside as well as inside. Maybe a minimum size should be considered.

IMHO the minimum size is the requirement to be able to "swim". If you can't swim (too shallow, too small), it shouldn't get sport=swimming (tagging error). What about those with no sports tag? That's the vast majority (there are a total of 744 393 leisure=swimming_pool, 456 547 of them are tagged with access=private, this leaves us with 287.846 potentially public swimming pools (or 274.997 without any access tag). I'd be reluctant to render only those with sport=swimming, because it will encourage people to add this tag also to diving pools, splash pads, recreation pools, thermal pools, whirlpools, etc. in order to make them render.

• leisure=sports_centre + sport=swimming there are about 8000 times. These are mostly indoor swimming pools.

Thank you for having the patience to check all those 8000 objects.

Cheers, Martin

The result from the discussion on the tagging mailing list is that public indoor as well as outdoor swimming facilities should be tagged leisure=sports_centre + sport=swimming and that leisure=water_park should only be used for real water parks (amusement parks featuring slides, wave pools etc.).

Therefore I think it would be best to use the swimmer icon for leisure=sports_centre + sports=swimming (#2018) and to change the icon for leisure=water_park for a water slide or similar (as one doesn't swim there).

[matkoniecz]

Can somebody give example of places where it would improve rendering?

[ghost]

It would improve rendering of swimming pool facilities (i.e. leisure=sports_centre + sport=swimming) in general, but especially of indoor ones, because you won't see a pool on the map.

Here are some examples:

• http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/5233379038
• http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1599802306
• http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/373736746

Besides, the fact that leisure=water_park is rendered with a swimmer icon (which BTW is unsuitable) but swimming pool facilities aren't is inconsistent and could lead to mistagging them as water parks.

[HolgerJeromin]

We should not mix leisure=swimming_pool with leisure=sport_centre+sport=swimming here! All examples from @SelfishSeahorse have a sport_centre tag!

If don't want to render leisure=swimming_pool + sport=swimming with an icon this issue should be closed (in favour of #2018 ). Icons for all this pools seems to be not improve rendering:

[matkoniecz]

I agree that icon for every single swimming pool, as proposed in this issue, would work poorly.

Pleas, open a separate issue if separate unreported issue exists ( https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/new )

[matkoniecz]

Closing as icon for every single swimming pool, as proposed in this issue, would work poorly in places with more than one swimming pool.

[matkoniecz]

Note that maybe icon for something like leisure=sport_centre+sport=swimming may make sense (one would need to check what is the correct/dominant tagging as part of creating an issue).

A separate issue already exists: #2018.

Note that maybe icon for something like leisure=sport_centre+sport=swimming may make sense (one would need to check what is the correct/dominant tagging as part of creating an issue).

There was a discussion on the tagging mailing list and the result was that swimming pool facilities should be tagged leisure=sports_centre + sports=swimming. I'll search for the link to the discussion and will add it to #2018.
