Thanks for clarifying things Christoph

Question for you though in regard to these "non-rivers"?

Are these channels permanent or do they move as tidal runoff changes?

& they appear to be named? At least 570038402 is marked as "Rute", running
through "Ruteplate". My translate has failed me as all it comes up with for
Rute is rod, stick, cane & similar which doesn't make any sense for a
waterway? Is there another meaning for Rute, or is it possibly a local
name?

 Thanks

Graeme
