There is one problem when using place: people start to duplicate data. What is already present/available in the place node is duplicated in the place area. Sometimes it also causes data mismatch (population with one value in the node and a different one in the area, different classifications, names, etc). The urban perimeter tag should be as simple as possible, without giving a chance for data duplication. > Please do not use landuse=residential for huge areas with all kind of > landuses inside. Using landuse=residential is exactly what we want to avoid. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
