All those tags have a meaning and may be put at the same time on the same piece of land, BUT: while natural objects (named entities) often make sense to be nested/ can overlap, landuse and landcover shouldn't cheers Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
