The wiki describes a well-defined and well-thought tag for these: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dprotected_area 'boundary=' is MUCH better than 'leisure=' for that purpose, as: 1. it is a boundary 2. often nature reserve is not even open for any leisure The 'protected_area' is better than 'national_park', as it may be used for many similar, but not same kinds of protected area. Unfortunately it is not rendered at all at our default Mapnik map. I wish boundary=protected_area were rendered in Mapnik slippy-map and boundary=national_park and leisure=nature_reserve would be, for compatibility with current tagging, treated as 'boundary=protected_area, protect_id=1' and 'boundary=protected_area, protect_id=4' Greets, Jacek _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
