I could not find any information in your documentation on the origin and 
production process for the source data.  This would be essential 
information to assess if this data is suitable for OSM.

What is the basis of applying highway=track and in some cases also 
surface=unpaved to all elements?  Do the source data specifications 
match those on https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dtrack

Do these roads really all have legal use restrictions, i.e. is it 
forbidden to use them except for forestry/agriculture?  Otherwise 
access tags are not appropriate.

Your import workflow description does not seem to contain any 
instructions how to handle intersections of roads with other features, 
in particular waterways.
