Common situation here on the incredibly flat lands the rivers and creeks meander over the land and then as the river dries up they form billabongs and waterholes. It is literally possible for the water to flow in either direction when storms arrive as the water spreads out from the waterhole. To be quite honest I have lived here for 20 years and don't know in what direction the local creek really flows although logically I know which way it is likely to flow. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
