<div dir="ltr"><div><div>You are right in that we shouldn't base any of our mapping on what is visible on Google Streetview. Which is why I was suggesting that somebody go check it out locally. I've been looking at Belgian aerial imagery we are allowed to use, taken over several years. But nothing useful can be seen on them either. What can be seen is that almost never more than 1 car was parked there when the planes flew over. So it's definitely not a parking lot.<br><br></div>I don't think we really have a way to tag an empty piece of land with no defined "function" nor vegetation on it,<br><br></div>Jo<br><div><div><br><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2018-01-12 14:38 GMT+01:00 José G Moya Y. <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:josemoya@gmail.com" target="_blank">josemoya@gmail.com</a>></span>:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Please notice that, for doing something similar to what you do here (reading a lot of maps and aerial imaginery, being only one of them [3] google maps) I was forced to erase my edition and do it again.<div dir="auto">Just to warn you.</div></div><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">El 12/1/2018 8:30, "Jo" <<a href="mailto:winfixit@gmail.com" target="_blank">winfixit@gmail.com</a>> escribió:<br type="attribution"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>It definitely doesn't look like a public parking lot.

<br>
If not, you might consider not fixing it. Yes it will be a useless<br>
polygon in the database, but isn't that better than changing it e.g.<br>
to a parking lot while it is a private property ?<br>
<br>
just my .5 cents<br>
