We do store railways, the traces of which are often found a hundred years after construction. ------------------------------- Somewhere in the middle is a boundary. The mapping of survey data feels to be better served by use of OSM as a base map, rather than attributes of the base map. The survey data as well involves a judgement: the type that's often not verifiable or maintainable by a latter mapper. That "temporary" road clearly belongs in OSM. When it's replaced, an on the ground mapper can see that situation and adjust. No so for the chicken count, or the damage assessment data.
