[Imports] Fwd: Hungarian CLC import

[Paul Norman]

The legal requirements are met by listing in

Some people believe that a source tag is not necessary on the ways if it is
present on the changeset. I am not sure about this myself, a source tag on
the way is sometimes useful and sometimes not.

 

If you do use a source tag on the ways I’d suggest source=CLC 2006 although
I’m sure there are other potential values. As the source tag is for mappers
it should be something helpful to them.

Yes, you're right about the source label. Could you explain, what would be
the best way? Maybe a copyright notice at the Hungarian CLC import wiki
page?

CLC:code is not necessary at all, so I will ask the others about that.

I believe the opinion of the LWG is that a source tag cannot be used to
satisfy a legal requirement. Keep in mind that source tags are routinely
stripped from the database by many tools (e.g. osm2pgsql). There are no
“required” tags that are legally required.

 

Because only  311 maps to landuse=forest+wood=deciduous the CLC:code
duplicates the tagging. Is it not possible to then remove CLC:code?
