I have no problem with tagging mariculture operations with landuse=aquaculture although it is a bit odd sounding. I wonder if the key salt=yes will be sufficient (or even acceptable) to indicate when such aquaculture is occurring in the ocean?
As for whether this is refining/redefining or redefining the landuse tag, I would rather say we're "expanding its definition" to include watery environments LOL On Thu, Jan 12, 2017 at 6:04 PM, Tom Pfeifer <t.pfei...@computer.org> wrote: > On 12.01.2017 10:27, Warin wrote: > >> On 12-Jan-17 07:55 PM, Martin Koppenhoefer wrote: >> >>> 2017-01-12 1:19 GMT+01:00 Dave Swarthout: >>> >>> I honestly don't see the need for another top-level tag for this >>> purpose. >>> >>> +1, IMHO we can use landuse for all kind of surface use, be it "land" >>> or "water" or sulfuric acid, or whatever.
