*How to map adjacent landuse types?* If the owner of the landuse separated by roads are different, it is appropriate to have them created as separate land use. If not, I suggest to have them treated as one, such as a residential area where you do not need to separate the residential area on both sides of the road just to give way for the road. But if this is water, it is fine to make them separate as a road is not possible in the middle of a water unless it is a bridge (e.g. fish pond)
Relations: I suggest that relations must only be used for "special" purposes such as there are two many nodes for a single polygon or when there are a lot of ways that must be placed on top of each other which makes them hard to edit if made as polygons and not as a multipolygon using relations. *What tag to use for fish ponds.* As fish thrives in water i suggest natural:water ; crop=fish *Poultry farms* landuse:farmland ; crop:chicken *Waterway tagging (suggestion) :* Rivers: if the width of the flowing body of water seems to be wider than 50 meters and deeper than 10 meters streams: if smaller than my concept of a river irrigation canal: a stream if it is natural ; a drain if it is artificial Ervin M. *Schadow1 Expeditions* - A Filipino must not be a stranger to his own motherland. http://www.s1expeditions.com On Thu, Oct 31, 2013 at 6:29 PM, maning sambale <emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi, > > Below are some tagging questions we experienced during the trainings. > I am sending it here for further discussions and hopefully agreements. > > Landuse > - How to map adjacent landuse types?
