I have only ever mapped what is on the ground. There's always some way for a
path the cross a stream - ford, culvert, bridge etc. It just seems a bit
trivial when you have a path crossing a mapped stream that is so small you can
jump across it.

Surfacing an old thread here as there have been recent developments.
The "Protected areas of Queensland - boundaries" dataset from QSpatial[1] has
been previously imported by QldProtectedAreas[2]. It's CC BY 3.0 AU licensed,
but the data custodian (Department of Environment and Science) has completed
the OSMF CC BY waiver[3] clearing the data for use in OSM from a licensing
perspective. The data custodian only agreed to complete the waiver for that
specific dataset due to concerns about the data quality of other datasets.
As far as I'm aware we haven't been able to get the waiver completed by other
departments who publish their data on QSpatial and we have no QSpatial blanket
waiver, only this specific dataset.
Is anyone interested in updating OSM based on some of the new data from this
dataset? A quick scan in QGIS there are some differences (mostly due to new
data published on QSpatial) but mostly it's consistent.
To compare the two I,
1. Downloaded queensland.osm.pdf extract from
http://download.openstreetmap.fr/extracts/oceania/australia/
2. Extracted protected areas from that file with:
osmium tags-filter --overwrite -o qld-protected-areas.osm.pbf
queensland.osm.pbf nwr/boundary=protected_area,national_park,state_forest
Giving https://tianjara.net/data/QLD_Protected_Areas.geojson from QSpatial and
https://tianjara.net/data/qld-protected-areas.geojson from OSM which can be
compared in QGIS or JOSM using the GeoJSON plugin.
