It's partial duplicate of #1561, closing it.

[tbertels]

This isn't a duplicate, #1561 is about a generic icon for vending_machine, and was closed because of that.

[imagico]

I would support reopening this and #2544 + #2545 for the possibility to render these specific types of vending machines. Cigarettes and excrement bags seem too specialized for a general purpose map.

This does not mean i would be definitely in favor of rendering them but i would consider specific suggestions for showing them at the highest zoom level (19).

Would depend on the database reload of course for practical implementation.

[kocio-pl]

As for me, feel free to reopen, since there's no easy solution. I closed all of them because I felt we should first discuss them it in https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/1561 and possibly reopen it, but individual issues also make sense.

I have already designed the icon for shop=tickets, which could be also used here (possibly with amenity brown):
1)

I partly agree for excrement bags (although I think it would be a distinctive osm map feature and somehow funny to show them), but there are a lot of smokers in the world, so cigarette vending is a general interest feature, while I could imagine people wanting to exclude it for other reasons (moral, educative/not suitable for kids).

[tbertels]

For parking_tickets and public_transport_tickets, I was wondering if it wouldn't be possible to mix the icon of ticket with the icons of parking and bus_stop, a bit like for bicycle_parking but with the ticket icon in place of the P.

For excrement bags, in case it would be rendered, a mix of dog_park and waste_basket could be used.

I am re-opening this. But note a suitable solution for this with a chance for being accepted that is not too big and strong even for z19 and that is specific enough to be intuitively understandable is going to be hard.

Icons proposals:

• vending=parking_tickets
  
• vending=public_transport_tickets
  

[lakedistrictOSM]

Maybe change the top line into a rotated [ to match amenity=atm and amenity=post_box?

[kocio-pl]

We might check this too, but current ideas are so distinct, that I see no reason to break the style similar to both ATM and post box.

[Tomasz-W]

Comparsion:

1) rotated [ (copied from amenity=atm icon)

2) rotated [

3) original

Give me feedback, which version should I upload on Gist.

[kocio-pl]

1 or maybe 2, because this make the style more uniform (it's easier to predict the meaning, because it was used for some other elements). Rendering test is needed to know if 1 has not some visual issues on the real map.

We could also use thinner [ as a special indicator, that it's a vending machine (and use it for many other types), as something distinct from ATMs (even if they are similar) and post boxes.

[Tomasz-W]

Each icon in versions 1 and 2:

• vending=parking_tickets

• vending=public_transport_tickets
  https://gist.github.com/Tomasz-W/e2ada41172ec67de5131e68d44fcb900

[lakedistrictOSM]

I prefer 2.

Can someone give an example. In the city center, the parking machines are almost every 100 meters and then will be difficult to find a cash machine (atm).

[Tomasz-W]

If someone is interested, I've proposed also icon for packstations -> https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/1561#issuecomment-373943968
