I'd like to import BLM (US Bureau of Land Management) boundaries into OSM.    This is not an automated import as you can see from my workflow.

Workflow:
Download shape file from PADUS (1 state at a time): https://gapanalysis.usgs.gov/padus/data/download/
Load into Qgis and filter for BLM boundaries
Clean up as necessary (there are some extraneous ways at state boundaries & elsewhere)

Convert to OSM with ogr2osm and the following tags
    tags.update({'type':'boundary'})
    tags.update({'boundary':'protected_area'})
    tags.update({'operator':'BLM'})
    tags.update({'ownership':'national'})
    tags.update({'protect_class':'27'})
    tags.update({'source':'US BLM'})
    use the shapefile attribute 'Unit_Nm' as the name

Import with JOSM

The San Luis unit (CO) is here for your inspection.
