G'day guys,
Looking at the sixmaps website they have a lot boundaries overlay
which does exactly what it says on the tin. Would it be
worthwhile requesting permission to access this? My thoughts are that
it could assist with armchair mapping for determining whether a road
is for public access or whether its actually just a long driveway or
the like? We already have the imagery dates overlay in iD so I presume
it wouldn't be too difficult to add?
Interested to hear your thoughts.
OSM has no tags for lot boundaries of private property.
Publicly accessible car parks are on 'private property' so would need
human consideration as to if it is 'private' or not. Think about
shopping centres...
So..
I don't see any advantage in adding it to OSM as:
it would need human involvement in considering if access is private or
not and that can be done using the present base map anyway.
there would need to be some way of tagging it...
