[talk-au] LPI sources, not the Base Map

2017-02-07 Thread Warin
Hi, I have come across a boundary between 2 state forests that are not shown on the LPI Base Map .. yet the source tag claims that is where it comes from. I think the source is the LPI admin boundary data .. and that is probably where they have come from. It is Way: 387068735, most of it

What about simply landcover=grass and foot=yes? Along with mapping out the pipeline separately? On 8 February 2017 at 11:29, Adam Horan wrote: > My local area (and I'm sure many others) have lots of pipeline reserves.

Yes, correct some pipelines cross private land and some across land with public access. In general near me the pipe is not visible, and it's not even always clear if it's gas, water or sewage etc. I'm most interested in showing public access of 'open' land in or near the residential areas. So yes

There's no real issue with heading out on your own with this type of tag. What you are doing is describing the type of park. So in this case the park is a pipeline reserve so therefore park=pipeline_reserve would be acceptable. People still regard it as a park which is the major tag. On

There's only a few hundred examples of park=* in taginfo, and none are for pipeline_reserve. I don't really want to head out on my own if there's already a convention. I'm not even sure if leisure=park is an accurate description :) On 8 February 2017 at 11:31, Ross Scanlon

Absolutely, per https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct the plans must be first documented and discussed. Since this affects the local NSW community it should have been posted here on talk-au. The example you gave of http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/442899224/history

My local area (and I'm sure many others) have lots of pipeline reserves. I'm really not sure how to tag these. They appear to have public access for walking at least. (One local one has a sign disallowing golf...) Some others appear to be across private land, and i'm less interested in those, I'd

I have often wondered where the existing National Park data comes from. In general it seems to exist in OSM in quite high fidelity however the boundaries are usually not evident on the ground or imagery. Yet whenever I've looked back through histories I can't find any reasonable source or

Hi, One mapper (https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/LPISourceTagFix) has taken on themselves to 'harmonise' all the source tags that they consider should be 'NSW LPI Base Map'. No consultation - mass mechanical edit. I had some source tagged LPI Hydrology .. these too have been changed.
