I've been mapping individual properties locally, and the finest I've gone in (suburban) residential areas has been each subdivision as a multipolygon. Any finer than that seems pointless. On the other hand, separating each individual commercial or industrial property (where owned by different companies) probably makes sense. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
