Permission to Import

Tim Maguire at the ARC gave permission on April 9, 2009, to import the database into OpenStreetMap:

Yes, it would be fine to use the dataset and if you have any questions please give me a call. I am glad to know that LandPro is getting some use. By the way, my boss loved that you called me Tina. I may have just earned a new nickname. Tim Maguire, GISP 404-463-3155

Cleanup

Most of the Polygons need cleanup: Data is often outdated (Example: Imported landuse=construction's are probably all or at least 99 percent wrong). Many Polygons have duplicated nodes, and many Polygons were imported but have no relevant landuse=* tags and should be deleted too. The geometry is very rough. All the landuses have the tag LandPro08:reviewed=no. If the landuse has been reviewed, the tag can be deleted. It is not nessescary to change it to a =yes.
