In terms of topology, the idea from some that 'landuse' only applies to land that is 'used' for something implies that large areas of the planet are 'unused'? A single layer of areas defining the current 'landcover' should be something that is managed even if that includes 'wood-managed' and 'wood-unmanaged'. The current historic situation has never been right but then so have other long-standing compromises in tagging. > P.S. And all I wanted was to talk about topology rules... BTW: here is > an example of topology rules in Lithuania: > https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Lithuania/Topology_rules In terms of the UK, Land Use and Land Cover is well defined with a set of clear classifications https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/national-land-use-database-land-use-and-land-cover-classification except they are not really THAT clear. In your rules #2 and #5 seem to be at odds? and in the UK classifications, just how do you define the wooded areas of a park ... which may or may not be 'managed' ... and are combined with 'grassland' and other natural or managed landcover. We can define landuse=park, but that park can have a lot of detail contained within it ... We are looking to render blocks of trees, grass, and other objects how ever created? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
