Emmor, regarding the classification based on what mapper sees, it is hard to do. Because to make rivers into a network, you must consider the whole network. That's a bit like with highways: you cannot choose its type based only on what you see (except for highway=motorway, of course). My proposed classification requires only checking wikipedia or another source for river parameters. So I assume that is already much simpler that tagging highways, and would help map style authors and other data consumers a lot.
There's another, more general problem with making waterways network consistent. When there's a lake (or some other water reservoir), we don't tag a river running through it in general. Maybe we need some special role in relation:waterway (link) and waterway tagging (waterway=river_link, waterway=stream_link)? It would be probably useful for boat routing.
Or I miss something? -- "Probably it's an eternal problem - too many chiefs, too few Indians" [O. Muzalyev] _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
