The question is not about their attributes (tags), but rather their geometry. All objects currently held in OSM are of large scale. Fuzzy areas are by definition objects of a much smaller scale. Having objects of different scale in the same layer (in the same database in OSM case) is not good (causes a lot of problems) from GIS perspective. So it is not good even if we do not add metaphysical properties like "verifiability". P.S. Third attempt: separate database? Or internal/technical separator field and filter on API level? With possibility to switch between the two in JOSM (and no possibility to edit both at the same time or reuse parts)? wink wink :-D _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
