Christoph,

I added a link to the wiki for a technical documentation of origin, production 
process and accuracy assessment.
Find the link also below, for your convenience.

Logging roads are inside logging concessions or logging titles and access is 
granted to logging companies only. Often, roads are blocked once abandoned. 
However, law is not always enforced and even if blocked, roads are still used 
by motorbikes and pedestrians to access the area.

Plantation roads inside plantations are private as well.

All logging road are unpaved. We didn't include this attribute in most of the 
layers, because it was a given. Material depends on the local situation. Mostly 
it is laterite, but it could also be rocks, sand etc. Unpaved would be the most 
appropriate tag. However, if you say, track tag already assumes, that the road 
is unpaved, we can discard the surface tag.

Best,

Thomas
