Still trucking along on the state Forest re—import. Thanks to my partner mappers reviewing for errors, tags and such.
Traverse City Forest Management Unit is re-uploaded. Baraga and Crystal Falls are done. Gwinn still needs attention to migrate ways from the Escanaba River State Forest relation, to become a super-relation. MDNR offices need added with tagging of amenity=ranger_station ad admin_centers roles in those relations. I figured out I could drop the address node in the building and tag that with the amenity for the fun little ranger station symbol to show.
Commercial Forest lands- I learned I was using an older data set. Plum Creek Timberlands has since been bought off Weyerhaeuser by Lyme Timber Company to form Lyme Great Lakes Timberlands. They also have a separate Lyme Timber Realty company for which some lands are enrolled, but I am putting all of it under Lyme Great Lakes, one relation. They also bought holdings from Heartwood-GMO. And TRG is another player now too, seems to have bought the holdings from The Forestland Group?
In the updated 2021 commercial Forest data from MDNR, there also are holdings of The Nature Conservancy for the Slate River Forest and Two-Heart River Forest Reserve. Of course i jumped at that opportunity and imported that straightaway. I dumped in the commercial Forest data into qgis, dissolved by owner name, split by type, then split those by owner name, so now I have separate GEOJSON layers that should speed up import by quite a bit.
