Middlesbrough has a lot more land use are surrounding it. But it's been done by as large areas of farmland to quickly fill in the "blank canvas", and I'm not sure it has much ground-knowledge at all.


That does highlight an issue that I find frustrating - that mapping of landuse / barriers etc. is a particular problem if it's done badly (e.g. ways that share some nodes but not others, that share nodes with things that they shouldn't because they were added at too low a zoom level, or were added based on historical low-resolution sources such as NPE).

If you're going to add individual fields, make sure that you've got some GPS traces to line the imagery up with, and do a rough visual survey from over the hedge to make sure that all the field boundaries are actually still there!

Cheers,
Andy
