the intention of the mapper who introduced it (by performing a database query and storing the results in the osm db, something you shouldn't do, we all agree) was to omit those trees in his renderings. He was interested in "special" trees and was asuming that trees close to other trees were less "special" (something I don't agree with per se, but in practice might have worked back then, because the mappers mapping "special trees" were typically mapping only those special trees, hence there was less probability of other trees _mapped_ nearby, even if there were actual trees in the real world). cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Talk-de mailing list Talk-de@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-de
