I agree. land used for farming (ie: a big field full of rice, wheat, corn, etc)
should be tagged as farmland.
A temple ground, with the various shrines, temples, POWs, etc, is
landuse=religious.
Obviously, inside a very large temple ground there are trees, gardens, shrubs,
and maybe a little 5x5m patch of farmland for vegetables - tag those
accordingly. they are all encompassed in the larger temple landuse. but the
landuse ends at the logical boundary of the temple grounds - it’s fence,
parking lot, driveway, etc. The landuse polygon is not representing what it is
legally owned by the temple - but that the amenities inside “belong” to the
building or the point. Sometimes that is difficult to discern - but it is
usually mappable if you know the place you are mapping.
Large fields surrounding the temple may be owned or operated by the temple -
but are landuse=farmland + operator= [religious org].
Similar with religious schools. My buddhist school is operated by a “business”
representing the temple.
the school is a school, operator=[temple business].
The temple nearby is landuse=religious, with it’s graveyard amenity and various
statues, POW buildings, and a small building=house that the head monk lives in.
