A designated place for charging a mobile device. A designated place typically features a sign, perhaps a table for devices to sit, and potentially mobile specific connectors. This is distinct from a vehicle charging station, which operates at a different scale, and from electrical power outlets not specifically designated for mobile device charging.
How to map?
Simply add the tag amenity=device_charging_station
to a node where the device charging station is.
