Re: [talk-au] tennis court land
It could be argued that the location of pools, even if private, would be a valuable knowledgebase in fire and other emergencies. You are not saying whose pool it is, or who has a pool, only that there is a pool at this location. But I would nevertheless be interested in the privacy implications, given that you can see them with google and similar. jim On Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 2:28 PM, David Murn da...@incanberra.com.au wrote: Ive been wondering about the idea of mapping private pools in the same way as private tennis courts have been marked, but been worried about some issues, particularly privacy. With the mapping of tennis courts taking place, is there any reason to not start mapping out private pools in the suburbs?

[talk-au] State forest areas - possible from DCDB-lite?
Hi, I've heard that the Qld DCDB-lite dataset has some cadastral information that can be used to populate OSM. Does this contain State Forests boundaries? If so, I'd like to understand the process to improve the OSM map around Benarkin by getting the forest tagged; so the question is how would one extract the correct area bounds for Benarkin state forest from DCDB?

If you know the rough start location then yes you can pull that info from DCDB, I've tagged a number of state forests and national parks this way, some even have a void running through them where roads go :) They usually show up as one big boundary... ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
