Bonjour Stewart,

 

Basically, you need to identify the lake as being a hole in the wooded area. 
Since both the lake and the hole are provided with Canvec data, you need either 
to …

-          Delete the lake and tag the hole as natural=water, or 

-          Delete the hole and add the lake as an inner component of the 
multipolygon.

 

The same sometime applies with wetlands in cases wetlands create a hole in the 
wooded area (you need a good imagery to see it); however, I should confess I do 
it only when it is not too complex ;-) 

 

See an example here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/45.8514/-71.1917

 

Best,

Daniel

About Canvec, the product often duplicates water bodies and inner polygons of 
wooded areas; which is not necessary where both were imported. In order to keep 
only the necessary geometries, I usually transfer all the tags from a waterbody 
to the duplicated geometry of an inner polygon and then, I delete the original 
- now duplicated - waterbody.

 


Hi Daniel,

I have to confess I don't quite follow what you're doing here. Are you leaving 
the waterbody defined only as the inner polygon (aka, a hole) of a landuse 
multipolygon? Are there any example ways you can link to that do this? 

The difficulty with the huge 'tiled' areas of the North is that few people will 
find the motivation needed to clean up the imports into coherent polygons.

cheers,
 Stewart
