OpenStreetMap
Ever since OsmAnd made Service Area searchable (sometimes in the last year or so), I noticed a lot of misuse of the tag highway=services. Some of the examples were:
- a fenced in private parking lot
- a service road (one extra "s" in highway=service)
- a gas station with full services (arguably. this kind of matches the tag definition)
Do the world a favor, and scan the areas you are familiar with (in http://overpass-turbo.eu/) for [highway=services]

I wonder if perhaps changing to landuse=services would be a better tag for this, to avoid confusion with “service”? Or highway=motorway_services (similar to the motorway_junction tag).
Also, you can use the share option in overpass-turbo to fill in the query for others :) https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/FmT
