              <div>Just a comment that I'd be wary of "No hunting",
                "Hunting allowed", or "Private property", or other signs
                on the ground that can actually be placed by anyone,
                whether or not they are legal. A problem that I've
                encountered more than once is a private property owner
                putting out what appeared to me to be an illegal sign,
                like putting a home-made speed limit sign on the small
                street that goes by their house. A similar problem that
                I've heard about is business owners putting out "No
                parking", "Customer parking only", "Private beach", and
                similar signs which were made to look official but
                actually were not approved by any government agency. So
                signage that you see in public is not always
                trustworthy, and I would be cautious about relying on
                it. Relying on official databases seems to me to be
                preferable to relying on signage.<br>

                  </span>I'm not a hunter, but I have encountered a lot
                  of "hunting forbidden" signs in different places,
                  sometimes every few meters apparently delimiting an
                  area. While I didn't map them at the time, I guess I
                  could have done it without having deeper insights into
                  the hunting business, simply by looking where the
                  signs were.<br>
                  <br>
                  What you ask for is desirable, but I would not make it
                  a requirement. In any field you can provide better
                  mapping if you know more about the topic, but this
                  hasn't led us to only ask specialists for their
                  contribution.<br>
