Hi, I have been using CAPAD 2024 data and would like to know the preferred 
value for the start_date field in osm and if it should be mapped from this 
dataset.

I have been using the GAZ_DATE field but I expect It would be preferred to use 
LATEST_GAZ instead if included to indicate the latest gazetted date that 
reflects the current configuration of the entity as many undergo large changes.

From 
https://www.dcceew.gov.au/sites/default/files/documents/capad-2024-tech-spec.pdf

Item Name: GAZ_DATE
Field Type: Date format (DD/MM/YYYY)
Definition: Gazettal date of the original proclamation that established any 
form of protected area.

Item Name: LATEST_GAZ
Field Type: Date format (DD/MM/YYYY)
Definition: The date of the most recent gazettal or proclamation by the 
relevant authority to amend the
protected area. It can be the same as the GAZ_DATE if there have been no 
changes or additions to
the protected area.
Note: Default is the GAZ_DATE

Thanks, Nev (nevw)
