note that the big bodies of water such as the bay of biscay have been "defined" by the international hydropgraphic organization, wikipedia provides the link. Those definitions should be probably mapped, but most likely with a special tag rather than our natural=bay because their definition of gulf of mexico is obviously not compatible with our definition of bay (refering to the sentence fragment "in Cuba, through this island to the meridian of 83°W" which includes a landmas to the definition) Richard _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
