While correcting some "overlapping building" errors identified by Osmose, I came across a neighborhood where someone mapped the area as "landuse=residential", then traced out the boundaries of each property. However, they then tagged every one of those properties as "building=house". How should I deal with this? Is there some sort of "boundary=property line" tag I can use? asked 24 Mar '16, 09:50  Carnildo |
One Answer:
I would say that property lines should not be mapped, but I will point you to this wiki page which has a thorough discussion of the pros and cons: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Parcel As that page mentions, since there is no consensus about it even being allowed, there is no set tag scheme. I'd say landuse=residential would definitely be wrong, though. answered 24 Mar '16, 15:12  neuhausr |
