Re: [Talk-us] Senseless Germans, again.

Re: [Talk-us] Low-quality NHD imports

t with the dense network of NHD geometries with a lot of cryptic tags and all flatly tagged as waterway=stream it is quite hard for mappers to identify the larger rivers and improve mapping there. Like here (NHD import on the left, newer manual mapping on the right): https://www.openstreetmap.o

Re: [Talk-us] Tagging National Forests

searching for a national forest for example will find the whole forest and not only the largest subarea. The map will look very white :( but at least it's not wrong anymore. It will also encourage mapping of actual forested areas as well as other vegetation and natural features. -- Christoph
