Hi Richard,

FYI, earlier (yesterday) i said i'll have potlach2 Island done... well it's
started (i wasn't joking)

http://api.development.i386.commonmap.org/?lat=0.012&lon=-0.0493&zoom=14&layers=B0000FTF

The idea here is to draw in a 'Map Legend'   which you would see on normal
printed paper maps in 1 corner of it.

Its divided into the 16 categories that are in the github source
https://github.com/openstreetmap/potlatch2/tree/master/resources/map_features

and added in the source tags, here's an example

****
Overall  ... you can see the spreadsheet on the 2nd and 3rd tab of JOSM /
Mkgmap you can see the breakdown of it.

But i think that after im done Potlatch2 Island, i can easily download it,
and view it in qgis, as a shp file, then look at the .dbf file and see all
the attributes.
All renderers/editors will be using the same 'Key' tags as shown above in
the example.

Idea's thoughts?

I'll be working on this today/tomorrow and work out the layout of one of the
islands, then the rest will follow the same structures

Cheers,
Sam
