Open Table Tennis Switzerland
ایہہ 16؍March 2021ء English وچ «landscapemapper» لیکھ چھپیا گیا سی۔I pretty recently started to play table tennis, about weekly against my mate Roman. It is only then I noticed that table tennis tables TTT’s are a real ubiquity, especially on school-yards. Thus whenever you need a break, proceed to the nearby TTT and have fun. :-)
How to find? - I composed a umap containing all OSM mapped TTT’s in Switzerland. ( to date: 1081 TTTs)
You can contribute to the collection mapping TTTs and tagging the nodes with leisure=pitch + sport=table_tennis. Here is the according OSM Wiki Page.
These tags are btw. the key to get your own data-set of TTTs over your region from overpass-turbo.eu.
Good spin!

Are all the tennis table (leisure=pitch + sport=table_tennis) supposed to be outdoor, and those inside mapped with (leisure=sports_hall+ sport=table_tennis)? or should we add a specific tag location=outdoor
Is the access=public/private widely used? for example, a lot of tennis tables inside closed school grounds (in leisure=schoolyard) are only for students so should be tagged as private
the wiki is not really clear about that

I would propose to see the somehow accessible outdoor tennis table as the prototype. So I would see the location=outdoor as ambiguous tagging. Also access=yes. There can be restrictions in access such as access=customers (in a public pool area or fenced campsite areas) though.

I made a mapcomplete theme for table tennis tables once upon a time.
However, there is now also the more complete theme for any sport pitch - allthough that is a bit a work in progress (it still needs an english version and a specific icon per sport)
