I too have encountered at least one armchair mapper who (in my view) incorrectly tagged large areas of Bodmin moor with this nonsense. I changed this rubbish in the areas that I have directly surveyed, but did not think that I should override another mapper who clearly had spent a lot of effort in adjacent areas without consultation. I first noticed this problem several months ago: I cannot remember whether I tried to contact the mapper to ask what was happening. I have had other instances of armchair mappers adding what I regard as very dubious landuse tags to areas that I have extensively surveyed. When I contacted one of the main offenders; I didn't get a very helpful response. Anyway, I suspect that this is a problem over large areas. ael _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
