Well, yes, that's why the DEC Lands data has been imported without an immutable=yes tag. Because, for example, we have metadata for forest=deciduous and forest=coniferous. You could quite reasonably draw a line between two nodes (without moving them) because you noticed that part of the land parcel is distinctly more odiferous oops I mean coniferous than the rest of the parcel. This would clearly meet the surveyor's concern that people running around with GPS receivers not move his accurately-surveyed lines. It's all about the metadata, baby. -- Russ Nelson - http://community.cloudmade.com/blog - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:RussNelson r...@cloudmade.com - Twitter: Russ_OSM - http://openstreetmap.org/user/RussNelson _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
