Agreed, I was mainly responding to Martin’s suggestion that landuse tags might correspond exactly to detailed planning zones. I feel that assuming so would be a huge mistake.
Just hoping to reign the discussion back before people start arguing about tagging stuff which they don’t understand. If we’re not careful, someone might actually propose tags like "landuse=R2;infill + landuse:special_zoning_district=EC2” which is both meaningless outside of NYC and probably obsolete as soon as I typed it. > On Feb 19, 2016, at 11:34 AM, Colin Smale <[email protected]> wrote: > > Bryan, the point is that we don't want to copy the zoning data from the > planning authority, but to learn from their classification system. > > > > On 2016-02-19 17:24, Bryan Housel wrote: > >> No, zoning is a way more complicated topic than most OSMers realize.
