[talk-au] Basic question

[Andrew & Ingrid Parker]

Hi everyone
I am a basic OSM editor. I usually just correct obvious map errors I find
while hiking/cycling. I have tried to be a little more ambitious every now
and then, but I have found it can be quite difficult to keep other editors
happy with what I do.

My question is: Can you have overlapping 'areas'? I was told by someone in
this group that you can't.

For example; Where something like the boundaries of a State Park and a
forested area are not the same. This is the issue where I was told that you
can't do that.
This makes no logical sense to me as this happens all the time.

I would appreciate some guidance on this issue.
Kind regards
Andrew Parker
