Which is why mapping this is not really within the scope of OSM - natural underground waterflows are inherently non-verifiable. You can and should map the surface phenomena related to the underground water flow of course - ponors, dolines, karst springs and other stuff. -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/ _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
