Re: [Tagging] landuse meadow getting the right description emphases

2020-03-15 Thread Joseph Eisenberg
In American English, especially in the west, the word “meadow” is used for
areas in the high mountains which grow grasses, sedges, annual wildflowers
etc in the summer months after the snow melts. They might occasionally be
used to graze cattle as rangeland, but usually are only graced by elk.

I think these would be called a “fell” in parts of Britain, but they are
somewhat similar to alpine meadows / pastures in the Swiss/Austrian alps,
where dairy cattle graze in the summer. Those really are pastures or hay
meadows, so perhaps Americans we got that usage from Swiss and Austrian
immigrants, and applied it to mountain grasslands?

I agree that alpine “meadows” should be tagged natural=grassland, but don’t
be surprised to find some mapped as “landuse=meadow” in the mountains of
California and Colorado.

1. What's the best tag for them? (Some people don't like "give_box" --
maybe an opportunity to experiment with ranked-choice voting?)

2. What related amenities are distinct enough that they deserve their

 - Public bookcase, obviously.
 - Separating the food sharing amenities seems like a good idea. I'd be
in favor of a single tag to which refrigerated=yes could be added to
indicate a public refrigerator.
 - I like the idea of a separate tag for hiker boxes, because (as I
mentioned in the public refrigerator thread) it's very common to have
them as part of another map feature like post office, shop, hotel, or
campsite, so simply being able to add hiker_box=yes would be great.
 - I've never heard the term "blessing box" before but it seems like

Ok. So meadow must have grass etc. But it also must be used for grazing or

And that is the part that is missing from some uses.

By placing the use first I hope to reduce the misuse and place some emphases on

Off topic, but indeed.

There are large areas of central Australia used for grazing that do not fit 
this 'meadow' description - nor should they,

Possibly landuse=grazing with natural=scrub or some other land cover tag could

In practice they are both types of vegetation (grass + similar).

Mappers have to base their tagging off of what can be seen: that's the
type of vegetation (grass and other herbaceous plants), plus other
clues such as fences, the presence of grazing animals, or other signs
of mowing for hay or grazing.


Only the presence of grazing animal says 'landuse=meadow'.

Grass alone may be a field in crop rotation where it is left fallow.




The grass is not there once cut

Generallly there is still a couple of centimeters of grass leaves
remaining after mowing for hay. It looks like a mowed lawn, or the
rough of a golf course, not nearly as short as the fairway or green.
(Source: I used to work "bucking hay", lifting hay bales onto the
truck, during high school)


I have several generation of farmers in my family.

Usually these are 'armchair mappers'. What they typically see is land cover
not a land use.


Currently there is even a tag meadow=perpetual for "meadows which are
maintained by natural environmental conditions", which I would
normally tag as natural=grassland.

However, I do think that the description needs to say that it is
mainly covered in grass and similar non-woody plants


There would be nothing wrong with tagging both

landuse=meadow

with

natural=grassland (or similar)

One is a land use the other a land cover.


There are many areas of rangeland in semi-arid regions where the main
vegetations is scrub or dwarf scrub (bushes and dwarf shrubs), where
the primary landuse is grazing cattle or sheep. These areas are not
tagged as landuse=meadow, because they are not a meadow or pasture:
there is not much grass. Many of them can be tagged as natural=heath
or natural=scrub, describing the semi-natural vegetation.

Here sheep give way to cattle in the more arid regions.


The presence of mainly grass (or sedges, clover, other herbaceous
plants) is just as important as the presence of grazing or occasional
hay-cutting, to define a meadow or pasture.


But grass can be present without being a meadow.



The grass is not there once cut, the remains are stubble. Hence the word
'usually' can be employed?
