Hi, thanks for your ideas.
From previous messages we think to change the different tag from landcover to hrg_landcover, the idea came form the professor Brovelli. Because we can think every type of landcover came from a satellite and the HRGLandCover (High Resolution Global Land Cover) is more related to the idea that we want to propose. Having that idea, we think that the creation of the tag org_landcover=barren can be very useful. For what concerns the vegetation if the original sense of the two tag is losted we consider the don’t create the tag. Let us known.

Landcover trees is a rarely used tag, with over half of use in Paraguay that is result of single series of edits. It is used by tiny minority of mappers. https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/landuse=forest https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/natural=wood https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/landcover=trees Mar 13, 2019, 8:49 PM by [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>: Hi all, After some discussion about the idea of this project, we think to better capt all the idea to create a wiki page with the purpose of better understand the problem and find the better way to tag this situation. So we create a wiki page https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/PoliMappers/mapping_deforestation where is possible to discuss these thematics, let us known your idea.
