"Tartan" is also a trade name as I understand it.</div>

<div>seems so, yes, that's why artificial_turf was introduced
AFAIR, but still tartan is currently used more often </div>

<div>They are different things - artificial turf is a direct grass
replacement (for soccer, hockey etc), tartan is specifically for
athletics tracks</div>

<div>I suppose in the old days there were grass athletics
tracks (like when I was at school) but I don't think many
competitions are held on grass now.</div>

I have tagged some 'athletic' (running) tracks that are grass (at
least they appear that way from imagery). These are usually
continuous with the inside of the field and in cases where there is
an outside continuous with that too. <br>
<br>
Some of 'athletic' (running) tracks have been 'artificial' (red
when seen from imagery,I have tagged these as 'paved'). While you
might not like the tag 'paved' for these .. it is a far as I would
go in describing the surface using imagery. <br>
