Hi Paul, and thanks for the positive comments...

It's not so hard, though you can readily use the test server to play
at editing. I certainly anticipate that we will want to chop the
Corine areas down much more finely, for all kinds of reasons including
the one you name. The areas being imported as "meadow" are what Corine
calls "pasture". Corine puts most other farming land into one of a
number of arable categories or (not so relevant here) into very
specific types like vineyard or rice field. Oh, or orchard, which of
course we do have. And in cases where you have, say, a small orchard,
a small meadow and a small field of wheat adjacent to each other you
can probably flip a coin on what will have been selected.

In general, to refine the corine areas, you will be carving out a hole
in an existing area to make room for an area of your own. This will be
done by creating a new area inside the larger one and adding it to the
Corine multipolygon with role "inner". Anybody who doesn't understand
what I've just written has probably managed to avoid multipolygons
(and maybe even relations) so far. They won't be quite so easy to
avoid after the import - sorry about that, but there aren't really any
better ways to represent this kind of data.

Nice suggestion. Is this for hand-cut bogs or for all bogs being harvested?
