Definition mentions "variety of plants" -What about case where it is just grass?

you mean just one species of grass, or a variety of grass?


Most mappers won't be mapping that. To most it is 'just grass'.


grass can have very different appearances, a cornfield is grass, as is a lawn. Mappers also distinguish meadows.
To me 'meadows', cornfields and wheat fields are farm fields .. and that is how I would map them. Despite the 'meadow' tag, I view it the same as 'path' vs 'footway'.
For patches of grass as parts of highways (e.g. on traffic islands, embankments or the centres of roundabouts), people use landuse=grass, if you don’t like this there’s landcover=grass.



Back to landcover=greenery.
Is there a proposal for this?

landcover=plants looks like a better tag to me.
