Re: [Talk-us] [OSM-talk] proposed automated edit: forested wetlands

[Dale Puch]

I think Frederik just meant not to rush between bringing it to the list
attention and making the bulk changes.

It's sort of like posting out of the blue:  I have this import I was
working on for a year, if no one objects I'll upload it today.

It is all about giving others the time to look and think it over then
respond.

That said, your tagging suggestion seems sound as per
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Dwetland for those who do
not feel like searching for it.

I noticed it as a problem about a year ago.

The landuse import for Georgia (which IMO is poor-quality and should be
deleted, but that's not going to happen) has a bunch of areas tagged as
note = Forested Wetland with no useful natural=* tags (since
natural=wood and natural=wetland both apply). Example:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/31457349

I propose to fix these.

But what would be the best tags to use? Would natural=wetland
wetland=swamp ("An area of waterlogged forest, with dense vegetation.")
be correct?


If there are no objections, I'm going to do this sometime today.
