OSM is trying to be the best map possible, and the map should be useful in small areas (like the UK) as well as more globally. Even if one local mapper with special local knowledge tags something only understood in a very small area, it is still improving the map. ael _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
