Re: [Tagging] Green areas that are not parks (revisited)
I really really don't think it is a good idea to degrade the leisure='garden' tag to mark everything from a castle garden, dendrological garden (with or without public access), or e.g. small Japanese garden belonging to a tea-house, to the extreme case of plain cut grass in some backyard. Such a vague usage of a tag is imho something that shouldn't be in OSM. Tagging every piece of an area with surface=* really isn't an option as I wrote before. But after a while of searching the wiki, I found something reasonable... Until there is a better solution I'll use the proposed scheme of landuse='residential' + residential='garden'.

E.g. historic=castle, ruins=yes More or less the tags will help a mapper tag the castle as being in ruins or not .

That had always been my feeling as well.

Good point. landuse=forest (or tree_farm if locally defined?) is true even for the week (or whatever) between when the clearcut harvesters leave and the forester shows up to replant seedlings, the intent & tax status hasn't changed. -- Bill n1...@arrl.net bill.n1...@gmail.com ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
