Good.

Bearing in mind that nothing* in OSM is 100% accurate (& the Somerset Levels do exist), how accurate do you need the data to be for them to be good enough for inclusion?

* No, honestly, it's not.

Not 100% sure, but wasn't it based on contour levels?

HI,


Yes, I removed this as I felt that it was incorrect and did not reflect the conditions on the ground. It was specifically removed under one change back in September 2016, whilst I was working on addressing some of the other mapping errors around that area. The Change was deliberately done under one change set, so that it should be easily restored if there was ever a need for it. However the boundary was a guestimate at best and did not reflect the actual area of the Somerset Levels, (going through Bridgwater & Weston Super Mare).


An example of what is really defined as the Somerset Levels is here http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-somerset-26080597 but there isn't an extract, that I've found, that we could use for tracing.


I'm not sure what benefit reinstating this change would give.

It appears it was deleted by user UniEagle

You may wish to contact him & ask to participate in this discussion.

FYI
Undeleting using Potlatch 1
If you know a location where the boundary was, zoom in as close as
possible, then amend the URL & open in P1. This is an example near
Bridgwater:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?editor=potlatch&#map=16/51.1414/-2.9724

Hit the 'U' (for undelete)
Then wait... & wait some more.
Eventually some red lines should appear (the server can be temperamental
& refuse to play)
Select the way of the relation.
In the preset list at the bottom of the screen there should be a red box
with 'Click to Unlocked' written in it.
Click to unlock (again, this may take some time)
Save & close.
Open your preferred editor to check it was properly undeleted.
