Is their there guidance on how land/attraction owners can manage mapping of their properties?
**Meta: this was originally asked as a follow-up to this question: [https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/62614/how-can-i-remove-the-camera-icon-which-data-point-is-associated-with-this-icon][1] by user CueContext.** It is a complex question which deserves an depth answer:
If I may, I would like to request further guidance, as this is not a personal view but rather a request from the Zoo executive team taking a pro-active role to improve (in their view) how their zoo is represented - based on how they wish to use OSM. To make this thread more complete, let me ask the question more generally in the following ways:
Case 1: In the case of private property, can / should the land owners be able to manage the OSM attributes for their land?
Case2: In the case of a non-profit that serves the public, can / should the land managers be able to manage their OSM attributes in ways that they feel best serve their mission and guest experience?
Please assume the intentions are noble and not malicious. In both cases, how do you balance the goals / needs of the OSM commmunity with the goals / needs of the those who are responsible for the land management and use?
Maybe the answer rests in how data layers should be modified up the stack, and not here? But still, who should really take ownership of the underlying OSM data?
Thank you (to anyone who may reply) for helping to clarify this important topic.
