Hi, so you would call the Mittellandkanal, connecting Elbe and Weser in Germany a lake?
I agree with Bulwersator. A canal does not necessarily have a flow direction. It may be built for water transport (then it might have one), it may be built inclining - indicating a "natural" flow. It may even have alternating flow when water is taken out on either side depending on weather or something like that. But it's definitly not a lake just because there's no flow direction. regards Peter Am 22.06.2014 12:58, schrieb Martin Koppenhoefer: > > >> Am 22/giu/2014 um 11:35 schrieb bulwersator <bulwersa...@zoho.com>: >> >> Canal is just man-made channel for water and existence of ones without flow >> is possible. >> I encountered some (between lakes). > > > when there is no flow it is a lake itself ;-) > > cheers, > Martin > _______________________________________________ > Tagging mailing list > Tagging@openstreetmap.org > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging > _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
