Similar problems with other features. Possibly use a site relation? Map each individual parcel as a simple way with the reference. Then place each parcel into a site relation and then the common tags on the site relation. Something like that, look up the site relation on the wiki for

I would just like to make a point about mileages/kilometrages. Physically marked positions (e.g. a milestone or a sign with an address) can not be replaced by, or derived from, the actual distance along the road. These distances are not constant. Roads get diverted, split, recombined etc which

[Tagging] Tagging forest parcels

Hello, there. My question is simple: how do we tag such things? The boundary=forest_compartment relation is not rendered, and what is rendered is tagging as landuse=forest both the forest and its parcels, which leads to rendering it twice, as you can see here:

I'd go with landuse=forestry on the property, a tag that was suggested here a while back. This isn't official or anything, but moving towards tagging forest parcels differently from the trees seems important. On Wed, Oct 9, 2019, 3:32 PM Mateusz Konieczny wrote: > > > > 9 Oct 2019, 18:11 by
