<html><head></head><body>Good discussion,<br>I also think the track should be mapped.<br>Aside from access no I think it might be worthwhile adding decommissioned or rehabilitation tags to tracks that should not be used to indicate their intended end.<br><br>Other thoughts are: <br>- why show access=no tracks on the map? Admittedly this comes down to the data consumers and their rendering.<br>- would tagging the whole area with access=conditional add any value?<br>- how will this discussion that will end in some form of agreed practice be documented on the map, aside from revised tracks that is?<br>- have they also threatened other mapping companies with legal actions? ianal but my response would be highlighting the various mismatches as already pointed out in the thread.<br>-- <br>Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
