I am currently working on cleaning up stuff in Stockholm, and I was
wondering if it was OK do to things like:
* Remove cycleways parallel to other ways and add a cycleway=track to that
way instead.
* Remove parks created from green areas on the satellite that are not really
parks (adding a tree_li

further inside. You remember
shops locations by their storefronts. (Not for shops inside malls of
course.)

Ok so I keep running into these; green areas visible on satellite imagery
that are tagged as parks but aren't really.
My first instinct was to remove them, but that was mostly met
with skepticism and alternative tag suggestions. So I am thinking of
inventing a couple of new tags for this:
landus

That is what I like about it - when all I can find out about an area is that

In Sweden we have special barriers in the ground that only larger vehicles
can pass, meant to allow buses but not normal cars - is there a tag for such
a thing or should I make one up?

So as I'm adding things I also try to fix bad alignments, doing things like:
* Make bordering landuses share nodes, moving the nodes for the least
"static" ie if a forest lies next to a lake, move the forest nodes since the
lake may be derived from real data, whereas the forest is probably just
pl
OK, some real world examples;
* Two overlapping wood-areas, one named, the other not.
* Grass inside grass landuse, rock inside grass landuse etc - is the rule
that wholly interior (possibly sharing nodes with the exterior) areas are
always rendered on top of its exterior area?

Oh and I forgot:
* landuse=grass overlapping landuse=wood, grass set as layer=-1

Well the area around where I live is a wonderful mish-mash of overlapping
landuses, and many roads sharing nodes with landuse-borders and I think it's
too much work to get it straight for now...
In the case of the grass/forest overlap: That was a grassy-looking area
containing houses (so actually

Is it OK to use information you find on map-signs next to streets or
suburban areas?
Usually they show the houses and street names in a certain area (residential
or commercial most often).
None I have found have ever had any sort of copyright text on them.

So the common problem I have here in Stockholm is that most residential
areas in the suburbs have been "carved" out of wood- and grass-areas so
there is always a mish-mash between those three.
Is the correct way to split up all those landuses in smaller parts so they
never overlap?
Also, is it OK

I'm kind of considering if this is right or not - if a road is the divider
between two landuses, is it still best to unglue it from the landuse(s) and
