Class eleven is for drinking water like your example below. Class 15 is fro flodding like my example. > This is perhaps not really the right place to discuss, but I think > boundary=protected_area is off.

And "protected_area" is a kitchen sink concept. They define an area like a national reserve or park but also low priority protections. Please think of a flooding area which primary landuse might be forest or meadow. >> I was looking for a more tighter definition of landuse=reservoir which >> would not include the whole flooding area but the area which primary use >> is the reservoir including the water, the dam and any facility like a >> tool shed. > > I think this is the crux of the issue.

So the water is tagged with water=reservoir (access=no) and we need a landuse value for the primary area around it. I do not like reservoir_protection though. Can we find a different name as I was thinking about protected areas. Maybe something simple like reservoir_ground or _area.
