I have been doing some mapping from Yahoo aerial imagery in Potlatch (with
tweaks in JOSM) for this area in Tunisia which appealed to me for some reason:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=36.7165&lon=10.3967&zoom=13&layers=B000FTF
I've inadvertently made many of the streets/roads highway=unclassified only to
discover that this is not actually the most generic/vanilla tag, and they
should be highway=road for aerial sketches. What's the best way to convert any
and all highway=unclassified ways into highway=road for that area (without
affecting non-highway ways, such as forests).
Also the greenery here is basically either quite dry lawn, or kind of bushy
scrub. What sort of tags would these have? And is surface=sand a possibility
for sandy tracks, or should I stick to surface=dirt?
