Re: [Talk-us] Google maps source

What is the best way to mark and tag a very small airfield that is used only for remote control (model) aircraft flying. I added one here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=38.49649lon=-89.87314zoom=17layers=M But I am unsure of the best way to tag the airfield and attributes. Rick Marshall

an exhorbitant fee and licensing restrictions that are very specific on who they can share the parcel data with. What a crazy business model! The St Louis are might be a parcel map Black Hole for your project. I have to imagine there are other areas in the same situation. Rick Marshall Rick
