That would make the transition quite hard - the current data is based on a different distinction and, as you say, the two are not equivalent. Perhaps more importantly, broad-leaved vs. coniferous is the obvious visual distinction and therefore more useful for rendering and easier to identify without botanical knowledge (except in winter). A separate tag (deciduous=yes/no?) would make more sense because the two attributes are orthogonal. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
