OK.

Added this:

Aboriginal & Torres Straight Islander sites

Please practice extreme care when mapping sites (e.g rock art, ceremonial
places) that may be of significance to Aboriginal or Torres Straight
Islander peoples.

Only map those sites that are sign-posted, or have been publicly advertised.

In all other cases, please consult with the local Elders before mapping any
site, & abide by their wishes if they say they don't want them mapped.

Thoughts or comments?

This should be documented clearly. Whilst there is a lot of well known art
work, there are a significant number of sacred areas that should not be
mapped or identified due to the cultural significance. We only need one
person transgressing due to OSM to cause offence. I have just worked with
the local owners during an emergency and it is amazing the amount of
artifacts that were identified that could disappear if mapped accurately by

There has been discussion here previously about mapping ceremonial trails,
& the consensus was that it should only be done with the agreement &

[talk-au] Aboriginal art sites

>

I have tagged them as historic=archeological site, documented here
 and
that is clearly approriate.
Also tagged as tourism=artwork documented here
 and I believe
this to be appropriate as they constitute public art with touristic
significance - you travel as a tourist to this area and a major drawcard is
the rock art. They are in the public space.

The issue about the sacred-ness -it is not the job of OSM to make this
call. If you think an item is too private to map (perhaps such as a farmers
internal road network) then don't map it. Tthis is the mappers call.

I don't understand the discussion about rock shelters. They are a creation
of nature and happen everywhere. Who cares whether you cook in them or
merely seek shelter from the weather. I would suggest creating rock art
takes more than a day and therefore they were all cooking sites.

Ancient art in its pure manifestation is of historic significance as well
as fascinating to many people.

Yep. Only those sites that are commonly known have been mapped.

Others, even some I know of and some with websites, are not on the map

a rock engraving with no paint => site_type=petroglyph

I think these should remain in the 'natural key space, possibly

amenity=shelter has

rock shelter is a shallow cave-like opening at the base of a bluff or cliff

I'd not tag them as camp sites, let people evaluate them and the

I've got no real input into what "type" of art we call them, but one
thought re the tourism side of things.

Are you only tagging those sites that are open & already advertised as
tourism sites?

I think that would be the safest way of doing it, because they are
considered sacred sites, so we should be taking care to not show the

[talk-au] Aboriginal art sites

2019-03-31 Thread Gavin Scott
I don't think site_type = cave_painting is correct as aboriginal art is not
usually in cave.
Aboriginal art is made in all sorts of places - under rock overhangs (where
it is protected from the weather), but can also be on rock faces with no
overhang. Sometimes it is in caves.

[talk-au] Rock Overhangs

2019-03-31 Thread Andrew Harvey
Rock overhangs (rock shelters) have been quite extensively mistagged in
Australia as natural=cave_entrance.

Are there any objections to re-tagging these overhangs tagged as
natural=cave_entrance to amenity=shelter + shelter_type=rock_shelter?

Of course they would only be re-tagged where we have local knowledge or
otherwise to verify.

Re: [talk-au] Aboriginal art sites.

2019-03-31 Thread Andrew Harvey
Hey I was just thinking about this myself the other day.

"Petroglyph is image created by removing part of a rock surface by
incising, picking, carving, or abrading, as a form of rock art." So when
there is on engraving, only paint then petroglypth would be incorrect based
on that definition.

Rock art (parietal art) is a superset of petroglyph. That is cave paintings
and petroglypths are both forms of rock art, at least from my reading of
wikipedia.

So I think,

an engraving with no paint => site_type:petroglyph
a rock art with no engraving => site_type:cave_painting

with site_type:parietal_art being a valid less specific tag for both.

I agree that tourism=artwork doesn't seem right, given they were not
created for tourism in the first place, and not necessarily as artworks
either!
