It's my understanding that the original question was about landuse=residential vs landuse=commercial. That's not the same as landuse=cemetary or landuse=landfill, obviously. > I also find it useful to define the border of a named housing development, > commercial business park, or shopping area, causing it to be shown in > contrast on the map as well as named.

Those have defined borders, where as the general "landuse=residential" is not often well defined at all. - Serge (not interested in supplying any more nits) Wroclawski _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
