[talk-au] Airborne Research Australia South Australia Bushfire Imagery
Airborne Research Australia has been flying aerial imagery around Adelaide Hills and Kangaroo Island released under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 https://www.airborneresearch.org.au/fires-2020. I've sent an email with the imagery tracing waiver to ask for permission to use for tracing into OSM. I'll update here if I hear back. ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] Australian guidelines for mapping landuse-landcover?
I'm for just deleting this page. While I agree the Australian Tagging Guidelines is getting long, I'd be concerned splitting it up would make it harder to find content, so I'm on the fence on that.

[talk-au] Australian guidelines for mapping landuse-landcover?
Hi, There is a page on the wiki for mapping landuse in Australia.. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mapping_Landuse_in_Australia It is rather dated, carries little information and appears to have no real Australian content. And it does not link to the Australian pages. The pagehttps://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_Tagging_Guidelines is getting rather large, I would not suggest adding landuse to it, rather a link to the other page and up date it to something better? ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] traffic_calming=choker and table
Hallo, I saw that you update the wiki with the link. Before I sign up to that website to download that pdf... Are there images that show this? I read the text but am lacking the imagination... Are other traffic_calming options mentioned and missing in the wiki?
