Used rarely to tag the typical Central European landuse "meadow orchard" (
Streuobstwiese)
The tag is used by few mappers proposing a dedicated first-level value for the landuse=* key. Those mappers argue that due to the dual use of meadow orchards -- hay and fruits (most commonly apples) -- it would be impossible to decide whether it's more a meadow or more an orchard.
How to map
Draw a way around the area of the meadow, and tag landuse=meadow_orchard.
Optionally add trees=* to specify the kind of trees or shrubs
Alternative tagging
Most mappers evaluate which characteristics prevail, and use subtagging as follows:
orchard=meadow_orchard
|
meadow=meadow_orchard
|
However, there are meadow orchards where it is impossible to objectively determine which land use is more dominant.
