Add emergency POIs? #57

Open HMT-HRO-MaMe opened 2 years ago

Hi,

while I'm not sure, if it's wise + allowed to map emergency equipment of buildings at OSM, I guess it's possible. Rescue plans are obligatory here in Germany for any public building, so you might share this details also online, to teach visitors where they can leave the building, or get help for rescue:

Maybe this should be a seperated layer to avoid visual overload? There are maps like openfiremap.de or Wambacher's Emergency but usually this objects are outdoor.

entrance=emergency and emergency=defibrillator are already supported. Other values seems to be quite niche, not sure we want to support them.

Yeah, it's just an idea that came up with some discussion with collegues. Not sure if others will have a great benefit and contribute such details. I guess assembly_point is some kind of information which is also important to the most visitors and to show them (before) an indident?

I think most assembly point should not be indoor.

Regarding other emergency values: https://taginfo.indoorequal.org/keys/emergency#values emergency=phone and emergency=fire_extinguisher seems to be quite used. I'll add support to them.
