I'd like to tag the area on which the Research Centre Jülich, Germany, resides. It is a big area with many buildings. So far, it is tagged with landuse=grass but this is only correct for small patches within. landuse=industrial doesn't seem right because it is public non-profit research.

Of the tags in use, I'd probably go for "landuse=commercial" rather than industrial. Alternatively, you could have a look at similar facilities like this one (no clues there though), or pick something yourself that seems appropriate.

Hi Bronger, You could tag the fields in between (islands) multipolygones inner versus outer, if its right with key amenity - value Research_Centre The same way a campus with buildings has been tagged before and is mentioned in the Wiki. Greetz
