Re: [Tagging] how to tag a salt flat

I don't think a landuse tag is sensible, as the salt flats I have in mind (look up some images of Salar de Uyuni to get an impression) are definitely not something human centered. However, it might be a good tag for some of the smaller areas where salt is actually harvested. The combination of

Re: [Tagging] how to tag a salt flat

Anyway, we agree that Lake Eyre does not fill seasonally, we agree it does fill intermittently (but maybe disagree on "full", not important). "seasonal" may be a good qualifier for a lake that depends on the seasons and responds to the season cycle most times around. But thats not
