Tag:amenity=piano

This tag was mainly introduced by OpenPianoMap via MapContrib, where it was first compared with musical_instrument=piano (and musical_instrument:piano=yes).

Suggestion from source

Create a node with this tag:

amenity=piano

Add access=* details:

• yes - explicitly public and open to whoever
• permissive - while nominally private, no visible attempt is made to restrict access, and casual use appears to be tolerated by the owners
• customers - while open to the public, the clear policy is to require a purchase prior to use.

Add piano type: "real" piano or electronic piano?

• musical_instrument=piano - a "real" piano (with strings and hammers)
• musical_instrument=digital_piano - an electronic piano

Is it a SNCF piano in a train station? Then add:

• operator=SNCF

Is the position estimated? Then add:

• fixme=position

If you read the piano existence information somewhere, you can link the source:

• source=*
