Yesterday I tried out the maximum capycity of my mobile phone. For GPS + audio mapping it is about 3.5 hours. I drove along the border between residential and forest areas, so I was finally able to put them into the map.

At first, I used landuse:residential and natural:wood as completely separated areas with some free space in between. If there was a road between them, I had three parallel ways, each one with its own nodes.

Afterwards, I merged the ways / nodes, so that residential and wood now "touch" each other at the road. This looks a lot nicer in the map, but the JOSM validator plugin now complains about overlapping ways. Am I doing things right?

As well, I now took care of the proper tagging of cycleways, footways and tracks, which are mostly distinguishable in our wood areas, were most ways are "Wanderwege" but commonly used by bikers. That means, as a guidway I used the questions "Does this feel like a cycleway? Would I recomend it to a biker? Would it be possible to drive a car right here?". I hope this meets the common sensus, too.

Same goes for rivers and streams. In the T@H map, rivers look too wide and streams too small, so what to take? I tried to make some compromise.
