Ugh. Thanks for dealing with this.
It's worth noting that when these areas are properly mapped there will actually be more ways, but they'll not be encompassing thousands of square km. As an example, the Sutter Buttes region (http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=39.22&lon=-121.78&zoom=12&layers=M) has more ways after I mapped some trees, whereas before it was tagged as just one large meadow. Some of the multipolygons I've been cleaning up have been particularly hard to edit as they cover multiple separate areas. I'd hate to handle them in P2 or iD, fetching a small area from the API returns these giant ways and getting the full MP is troublesome in JOSM which deals better with areas larger than the API can comfortably deal with. When I get more cleanup done I will issue a bunch of re-render requests (/dirty). The region will be less colorful on the map, but the data will actually be right. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
