In downtown Vancouver, there are regular fire hydrants (usually red) and special blue-and-white ones which are part of the Dedicated Fire Protection System. I looked on the wiki and it doesn't mention that case, which is not surprising since apparently only Vancouver and San Francisco have a similar system. Any suggestions as to how I should tag these blue hydrants? asked 22 Sep '17, 05:09  fmarier |
One Answer:
I would just put a different operator and colour tags on it. answered 24 Sep '17, 07:33  escada |
Hi did yuou looked at the Frisco area and search for hydrants as well to see how they solved it ?
No, I'm not familiar with Frisco. Do you have a link handy?
There was recently a thread on the tagging-mailing list about fire hydrants: https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2017-August/032978.html You could try replying to that and asking them the same question.
"Frisco" means "San Francisco".
Also check https://www.osmhydrant.org/ to easily add and edit fire hydrant data. For your question you could use operator, color and description tags.
