Id: Create preset for Amazon Lockers

Created on 27 Aug 2018  路  5Comments  路  Source: openstreetmap/iD

Amazon Lockers are becoming more and more commonplace in the UK, and are often found at shopping centres, supermarkets and universities. If you don't want to call it an Amazon Locker and would like it to be more generic, then just add "amazon locker" as a search term.

good first issue preset

There are many different providers of parcel pickup lockers, so long as the preset allows people to map non-Amazon parcel lockers.

Examples: InPost, DHL, DPD, Deutsche Post, Australia Post, Poste Italiane, Omninova and many many other larger or smaller brands.

Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like a generic Parcel Pickup Locker would be a useful preset.

I just added a Parcel Pickup Locker preset..

I'm also going to find a way to add it to name-suggestion-index also. That project currently doesn't check the planet for amenity=vending_machine so I've added it to the list and will see what kinds of vending machines currently show up frequently. (Downloading latest planet file now).
