Hello, there.
If a part of a forest has been razed and is now a scrub area, should I
let this natural=scrub area in the forest multipolygon? I thought so,
as the scrub area is still managed as a section of the whole forest,
but another user updated it to exclude the scrub areas from the
forest multipolygon, so I would like to know which version was correct.
Awaiting your answers,
Is the area
A) used for forestRY - an area that uses trees to produce something?
B) or just an area with trees?
If A then it is correct to have the area tagged landuse=forest. The
addition of landcover=scrub, once the 'scrub ' grows into trees then
landcover=trees can be done.
If B then it should be tagged landcover=scrub as the tress are no longer
there.
For me the landuse=forest (where correct) is enough, I would not tag the
cycle of the harvesting, planting, growth of the trees. But some want
that detail.
There are enough blank areas on the map that these time dependant
details lack any real interest to me.

Note: renders may not recognise landcover ... so you may have to add
'natural=scrub' etc even if it is not what you would call natural.
