Hi all,
I have 3 areas to look at
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/59586888
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/59584575
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/59584574
Yan Morin went ahead and the the conversion of the whole set, based on the
rules that are listed here
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Geobase/Canadian_Aboriginal_Lands
And so, based on the discussions thinking about it a bit, the solution i
came up with seems to solve everyones concernes (almost everyone's) .. since
we cant please everyone :)
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Daboriginal_lands#Discussions
It's pritty easy to re-convert the dataset for different tags. So im
looking to see if there are better options. (i dont like it isn't an
answer) :)
Here's an example, of how i want to tag all of them.

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/59588054
from wiki
With some time to think about it, this tag proposal page should be changed
to
boundary:typehttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:boundary:typeaction=editredlink=1
=aboriginal_landshttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:boundary:type%3Daboriginal_landsaction=editredlink=1.
Here's why:
example: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/58942854
admin_levelhttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:admin_level
=4 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:admin_level%3D4 -- because it
has its own jurisdiction which is similar to a 'state/province' level, where
it is still within a country (generally) more times than not. There are
special cases (just like countries that are in transition dispute). In
some countries there are signed agreements with members of each group.
place
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:place=statehttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:place%3Dstate--
this should also be used, as it clearly defines the fact that it is
like
a State/Province jurisdiction and more clearly defines the admin_level,
where admin_level=4 could be used for
boundaryhttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:boundary
=national_parkhttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dnational_park
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/40060616
boundaryhttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:boundary
=administrativehttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dadministrative--
because this is an 'administrative' boundary. Where it's known, and
sometimes signed, as it would be trespassing if there is no implied visiting
(there is no security check to go/through the area)
boundary:typehttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:boundary:typeaction=editredlink=1
=aboriginal_landshttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:boundary:type%3Daboriginal_landsaction=editredlink=1--
although this is not documented (yet), it is a way to clearly list
what
type of boundary this is
landusehttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:landuse
=reservehttp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:landuse%3Dreserveaction=editredlink=1--
in OSM, both the landuse and drawing the actual property line is used
interchangeably. In this case. the default landuse would be the fact that
the whole are is a reserve. When more details are known, these can also be
mapped; Listing the physical environment, such as 'natural=wood'
natural=grass natural=water.

So if there are no objections, i'll move the page over to
boundary:type=aboriginal_lands and put it in the draft status with
details.
Cheers,
Sam
