Add other land use features like farmlands

[kristbaum]

Would it be possible to add other land use features with Rapid like farmland or orchards to OSM? They often come in very regular shapes, and could be easier to detect than buildings in some instances.

And thinks like swimming pools could also be a useful addition.

Thanks! This is kind of the same as #574, #575 . These are great ideas, but I don't know what to do with requests like these, since it's not actually our team that produces the AI derived data. We probably need to loop in an actual subject matter expert.

Sounds great, would that be someone from the "Facebook Map With AI service" or the "Microsoft open buildings dataset"? Or is there some crossover between these teams?

These teams all talk sometimes, but nobody is detecting farms and swimming pools, and I don't know whether that's a realistic ask.
