See http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:boundary
It lists boundary=national_park - I think this is kind of similar, in that it is an area of land, with designated access rights etc. But its not a national park. boundary=public_land_open_to_ramblage is a bit longwinded, is there an shorter official name, or abbreviation? Or maybe a more generic/international name, eg boundary=access_land? And within this area for the boundary, different parts can be tagged as areas with natural/landuse tags as appropriate. eg some areas may be natural=fell, some natural=water, natural=wood etc Craig _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
