[OSM-talk] Native American/First Nation, etc. Reservation Boundaries

[Paul Norman]

I can't speak for the US, but tagging of them in BC was set back by people
pushing the view that they should be tagged as provinces. There were also
issues that someone imported a bunch without geometry or tag cleanup.



The fact that they generally cross admin_level=* boundary=administrative
boundaries and those boundaries cross them is a pretty strong indication
that they're orthogonal to admin_level boundary.

 

AFAIK, reservations are pretty much unique to Canada, the US and Australia.
Oddly enough, I've been to all of those countries.

One part of my original message I still  need help with. Why aren't we
adding these boundaries to OSM? If it is just that no one as added any or is
there an issue I'm not aware of? Personally I'd like to start adding in
these boundaries, at least in the US and then only for geographical areas
I'm familiar with.
