One of the problems is that the following mappers don't know how to deal with them when they modify the data, because the meaning (of the value) is mostly not documented > I would much rather have leisure=nature_reserve than protect_class=19, if > someone needs to > know the ‘protect_class’ they should be able to find that elsewhere.

It also doesn't tell you about protection importance/hierarchy (e.g. UN level, European Union level, national level, regional, etc.), nor the kind of reserve (forest, water protection, birds protection, ...) cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Imports mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/imports
