So it seems then that what you're mapping here isn't so much the active
fire front, it's the burnt area given you want it to stick around after the
flames are out.
During Australia's fires last season, I did contemplate mapping active fire
fronts, given I could see with my own eyes where the flame

Neither of these two, really. Certainly not the active fire front: the f

Thank you for your thoughtful reply, Sarah. However… (and it’s not polygons

Yes, I've seen exactly such signage on a number of charging stations in
my area. I did consider the generator:source-type tagging as well, and
pretty much took the possible values from there (plus adding the general
'renewable' tag), however this is something that many different types of

At least after the Australian fires, we still left natural=wood areas which
burned tagged that way, and in my view this is correct since they are s
