Hi athio, Oh I don't know. I don't think what I see classifies as "small gardens" especially when grouped into contiguous parcels.
Considering how basically well mapped it is, I would just fix up the tags and in at least one example: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/12.612812/-7.978442 make that a proper multi polygon. In rural and semi rural areas mapping plots that small as farmland would not really be a good idea, that is why we have been focusing on forest when in rural farmland, mapping what isn't farmland. But in a dense urban area like that the reverse is true, small plots of land like that are rare and GIS people can do interesting things will the polygons well tagged. Personally, I think the distinction between farmyard, farm and farmland is difficult, actually, correct me if I am wrong, but I think 'farm' is deprecated so only either farmland of farmyard are the choices. I go with farmland unless it is a really small homestead type ag. which I almost never map so I basically don't use farmyard, only farmland. These are right on the edge for me, bigger than small backyard garden, smaller than commercial ag. I'd group them as much as possible and tag them landuse=farmland. I just saw you fix the aeroport=apron on the buildings, nice.
