[talk-au] Queensland Govt Spatial Catalogue

I’ll say that again in a way that is more readable…
I notice that when selecting some national park multipolygon relations there are sometimes areas not included although they are part of the overall boundary of the NP. 
Those that I have noticed today are in a separate mp relation and are tagged "Special Management Areas” in addition to having the national park’s name.
You need to select both these mp relations to get the true extent of the particular National Park. 
I won’t be mapping the Special Management Areas separately in the NP as I expect they are temporal in extent and use.

When that is done I will proceed with the Qld Protected Areas data and it will be a big help with forestry boundaries. I am updating each protected area separately so will be at this for quite a while yet.

It's CC BY 3.0 AU licensed, but the data custodian (Department of Environment and Science) has completed the OSMF CC BY waiver[3] clearing the data for use in OSM from a licensing perspective. The data custodian only agreed to complete the waiver for that specific dataset due to concerns about the data quality of other datasets.
