How to map
Map the outline of the military area
and add
In cases where it is applicable also add military=* and military_service=*.
Note that in many cases military=* objects are mapped separately, for example military=bunker that may be within landuse= or outside it (common for historic bunkers).
For military bases add military=base for the base area.
Additional tags
name=*military_service=*military=*
Note that following military=* values are rather tagged on separate objects. In many cases such object will not be within landuse=. For example historic bunkers are commonly outside areas used by military.
