> If you wanted to describe both the soil and what is growing on the soil, would you use both a surface tag and also a landcover tag? For example, if you had a sand dune stabilized by beach grass, would you use surface=sand and landcover=beach_grass?
I think that this is a good question. IMHO surface doesn't qualify for
more then actually "surface", that's why I don't think of it as a good
tag for soil in general, because soil is comprising a whole layer (can
be up to some metres thick), which is not what surface is about IMHO.
