If I go to the wiki page on landuse I find for landuse=forest "For areas with a high density of trees primarily grown for timber." This is also what most people will associate with an area used for timber production. In the end our disagreement here is on a question of scale. For you any small and even private usage (e.g. collecting firewood) is timber production. For me I would only call it timber "production" if it is the primary (usually industrial) use of an area which includes cutting down trees. I am simply against tagging large areas of land based on a technicality that is not important for most people. I would rather do it the other way around compared to your proposal. Remove the default landuse=forest and only add it for areas where timber production is the primary use. Since this is to some degree a question of taste the best would probably be to get a majority vote ... _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
