Hi, I just wondered how to tag a dock which is tidal, since the wiki does not propose anything for that case. In fact the wiki proposes dock=tidal for a dock, which has a tidal independent water level i.e. the water level is managed.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:waterway%3Ddock But maybe I am totaly wrong and the type of dock should be tagged as waterway=riverbank or natural=water, water=river. How ever this does not give the information that the dock is tidal. And if I am not wrong the meaning of tidal is exactly that the water level is changing depending on the tide and is not managed in any way. Overpass API gives me a number of 42 polygones for dock=tidal in total. I figured out that 9 seem to be wrongly mapped according the wiki, 19 are done by me and 14 seem to be correctly tagged. http://overpass-turbo.eu/?w=%22dock%22%3D%22tidal%22+global&R So what do you think about deprecating the usage of dock=tidal as it is proposed at the wiki and propose the opposite? In that case I would propose something like dock=basin or dock=managed_water_level.
