Proposal

This proposal is to create a new tag to identify the availability or location of a nursing room.

Rationale

Nursing rooms are very important for mothers of infants, as many mothers, especially new ones, do not feel comfortable nursing in public. In many areas it's not socially acceptable to nurse in public. Currently there is no consensus on how to map nursing rooms. Currently people use either `description`, and there are a few people using the key `nursing_room=*`.

Examples

ExampleTagging
amenity=nursing_room

nursing_room=1

nursing_room=yes on the building/poi

OR
nursing_room=1 on the building/poi
OR
amenity=nursing_room at the precise location in the building, with nursing_room=1 and level=* (if necessary) (preferred)

Tagging

This section contains subtags for additional data about the rooms. Below there's a table describing each individual subkey.
