Hi, I'm new to editing OSM, having been a heavy user of OSMAnd for Android for several years. I primarily use the maps for snowmobiling here in Northern Michigan, and building my own database of gpx tracks.
The Michigan maps are lacking the information for state forest land. I have noted that the Upper Peninsula does have some state and national forest areas, but there is much missing here in the Lower Peninsula. I have found the data on the State of Michigan website, and have successfully downloaded the shapefile for all state forest land. I would like to proceed with adding this data to OSM, with the help of experienced editors. This is public data, available at http://gis-michigan.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/dfe0bcec31184b57b9f0d96bc02d6548_1 This is high-value data for all OSM users in Michigan, to understand when they are public land and help prevent trespassing onto private land. I often have to switch over to Google Maps to see if I am on state land. Please advise as to how I may proceed. Thanks, David Martin
