Tagging for the Unhoused

Дата публикации: 14-08-2026 23:55:35

Hi guys.
I would like to emphasize the benefit that the micromapping of certain features can contribute to unhoused communities. Of course, there still needs to be more awareness of OSM within these communities, but the data being there is great for the future and making the map more useful.
Tagging if the seats on benches are separated or not allows people to know where they are able to lay down and thus sleep if they don’t have access to other places to sleep. The tag seats:separated=yes/no is used for this purpose. Ive been adding this to every bench I map. Tagging benches that are not separated is just as important as tagging benches that are.
Drinking water is needed for all humans to live. Knowing where the nearest water fountain is, or the nearest convenience store that will let you fill up a water bottle from their fountain drink dispensers, can be super useful and help when times are tough. Consider looking out for drinking fountains at parks and other public places.
Hope you got something from this, happy mapping and I hope you have a nice day.
