Networks for canoes use network=lpn|rpn|npn|rpn where p stands for paddling. Hm, I fear that only complicates the matter... Vr gr Peter Elderson Op di 23 jun. 2020 om 14:05 schreef Niels Elgaard Larsen : > Joseph Eisenberg: > > The wiki page Key:boat

[Tagging] How are protected_area (and national_park) boundaries determined?

On the Talk-US mailing list, other mappers from the USA have been discussing how National Forest boundaries should be mapped. There is now generally consensus that these should be tagged boundary=protected_area + protect_class=6 but there are 2 possible lines to follow: 1) The boundary declared

Re: [Tagging] How are protected_area (and national_park) boundaries determined?

Here's the official USFS map online: the dark green line is the declared outer boundary of the National Forest. When you zoom in, 2 different colors are shown: the slightly darker green areas are the land owned by the Federal Government, while lighter areas are privately owned. This is easier to
