Thanks folks, I’ll use just leisure=nature_reserve, as suggested.
landuse=forest will probably only be needed for plantations now I guess. Ewen,
many of the OSM State Forest boundaries in Vic are ‘guesstimate’ boundaries
that were first mapped many years ago. Some are really rough and very
approximate. The Wombat SF boundary includes lots of obvious private land in
many places. At least it’s a lot easier to see the problems when the admin
boundary is mapped separately from the vegetation patterns, after
landuse=forest is replaced by nature reserve and a separate wood layer.
+1 on separation of land use and land cover being a 'good thing'.
The Vic Forests ban on logging is 'only' for native forests, so any
radiator pine would still be landuse=forest? Don't know about the blue
gum plantations, probably excluded from the 'native' bit due to being
'plantations'.
Possibly the native forests presently under the control of Vic Forests
might be moved to some other government body... wait and see for the
changes.
