[Imports] Hungarian CLC import

OSM attribution is done through listing on
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors not through source tags
which can be (and frequently are) removed.

 

I remain skeptical of the value of CLC:code in cases where the CLC:code maps
to only one combination of OSM tags. The code can be inferred from the tags
that were used on import, so there is no additional information.

Hi,

 

The exact attribution text (© EEA, Koppenhága (2009); Készítette a FÖMI a
KvVM megbízásából (2009)) is specified by the organizations who made the
dataset. See
http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2011-April/057501.html This
source tag identifies all data that comes from the Hungarian CLC dataset.

 

I didn't find any specific description for CLC:id and CLC:code on the wiki,
though several national CLC pages list them. As far as I know, CLC:id is a
unique id assigned to the polygons, while CLC:code does indicate the landuse
type. CLC:code is a three-digit number with all digits ranging from 1 to 5.
For a legend see
http://eusoils.jrc.ec.europa.eu/library/data/efsa/Images/Legend_Corine.pdf

 

I think this key should be kept because its values do not correspond exactly
to OSM landuse= or natural= tags, so it does mean extra information.

Is it possible to use a source key that makes it clear that it’s CLC?

 

Are the values for CLC:code and CLC:id listed on the wiki?

 

If CLC:code indicates the landuse type, is there any value to it if it is
duplicating the tagging?
