<p>For what it is worth (and I do not think much of that, myself!):
the landuse tag is one of the most confusing and most misused.</p>
<p>In my self-assigned job of mapping aerodromes, and improving on
them, I often see tags like<br>
</p>
<p>landuse=grass</p>
<p>and that seems incorrect to me, it ought to be surface=grass
rather<br>
</p>
<p>Correct usage of landuse includes (in my very personal
appreciation!) landuse=industrial, landuse=military,
landuse=commercial, landuse=recreational and more such. What that
means to the mapping of highways is beyond my comprehension; and,
to be frank, beyond my interest. I only wanted to give my opinion
on the general usage of the landuse= tag. Perhaps the best
application of the landuse tag to highways - but also to railways,
canals, aerodromes, &c, would be landuse=infrastructure or
landuse=public_infrastructure</p>
<p>NB wasn't there a dedicated mailing list about tagging?<br>

about landuse mapping: connect landuses to highways or <span>let
space between landuse polygons and adjacent highways</span>?
Is there a consensus or can everyone do whatever he/she likes?</div>
