Dear friends, I have worked with folks doing ground surveys of helicopter landing zones during emergency response.
These are ground truthed locations, observed by active search and rescue helicopter pilots collecting the basic minimum critical ground survey items for an HLZ for their aircraft type. They collect the data and provide it in the public domain and I would like to map it. I think the vast majority of the items collected are already well supported in OSM, trees, light poles, ground type, area, grade, landuse. What would be the best way to map this data? Does it need its own namespace? Just map regular OSM tagging and render the data myself custom? I think issues of does the data belong in OSM are separate issues, I am just interested in how to map it and tag it well. I would be mapping nothing but ground truthed data that we already map every day, trees and light poles and ground type, landuse. It is publicly available data (CC0). Other data could and should be added specific to HLZ's so we will need to discuss any non traditional tags that I would like to see be used for the HLZs mapped.
