Then it's harder to distinguish presurized hydrants vs suction points but not impossible : concatenate water_source with ref or arbitrary label (hydrants don't usually have names) and you're done. > > Pipe lines would also have a flow_capacity, as would canals, drains. > Humm pipeline uses the tag capacity ...

Since capacity definition is "The tag describes the capacity a facility is suitable for", it can fit for pipelines, hydrant, canals, drains... in m3/s or m3/h, can't you ? François
