Well, perhaps we have a happy compromise here. Tell you what: I'll start with the assumption that a forest should be tagged forest. (That's fair, and/or I'm listening to your alternative proposition). WHEN, WHERE and IF you know a particular area to be expressly NOT a forest, you are perfectly welcome to exclude that subset from said polygon. I'm fine with that. SteveA California > Hello, I have another suggestion, how about we do not assume. We seem to be in agreement (vast majority) about boundary=protected_area being the only tag that should for sure be applied to every National Forest. Please don't tag Pike National Forest with landuse=forest because some subsets have already been tagged (where you can see timber harvesting 'scars' in the imagery) and I have ground verified - by seeing signs (sorry don't have a picture) - but (paraphrased) they say "fuel wood gathering by permit only" and if you'd like you can contact the districts for the designated areas where it is allowed but shouldn't be mapped the other way around because it is a very small subset of Pike.
