I think France is the 2nd or 3rd biggest community of contributors in OSM. I'm surprised that you start the discussion here. I feel like an American receiving a request from one guy in the middle of the pampa to delete all tiger data in US because this guy was able to detect the bad quality of that import. What I mean is that you should ask first the local community if the idea is good or not especially when this community is big and mature. We always strongly encourage people to replace to original CLC landuse polygons with better ones (hem... is it not the principle of OSM ?). If you find a place where the landuse is not that good, it is simply because there is no contributor there. Is it a good reason to remove all of them ? If I find some place in US with very bad Tiger data, may I propose in my turn a mechanical edit to remove all Tiger data ? Because if you remove CLC meadow, you should remove all CLC landuses. And you should not stop in France but go ahead for all European countries where CLC was imported because it was the same source/process, Pieren _______________________________________________ Imports mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/imports
