the landuse polygon has an orange highlight on it, why does it do that?
Just a hint on mapping (not to Robin in particular): I think it is
unnecessary to cut up landuse=residential areas just because there is a road
there. The road itself is as much part of the residential area as the ground
the houses stand on. IMHO there is no reason not to make the
landuse=residential be contiguous across multiple roads.
I disagree. Public roads generally are a different landuse (i.e. they
are roads). Smaller landuse entities also are much easier to refine
later. And yet another point: landuse mapped like in this example
conveys more information because it indicates the border of the
private properties.
cheers,
Martin
