Not super pretty looking.
Hi guys,
Personally I'm not that into micromapping, but could I make the
suggestion that you use (additional) tags to make it easy to filter this
stuff out? It makes it hard to render a reasonable map if there's no
distinction between, say:
* relevant public buildings, vs private houses (use building=house sounds
good)
* walking paths through parks, vs ordinary footpaths (use sidewalk=yes?)
* public or semi-public tennis courts (eg at a sporting facility, vs
private tennis courts in backyards (access=private?)
* similarly for swimming pools
My tuppence worth:
It would (possibly) be useful to map significant private homes otherwise just
tag the blocks as residential area.
