Same in UK: I forgot to mention them. The pipes serving domestic houses and draining water from roads are all "drains", and by extension also for the entrance grills in roads and the like. That includes sewers as well. But I guess few of them would be mapped in OSM unless particularly large or significant. Back to the point: it would be unnatural to tag them as canals! Some might overlap with culverts? ael _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
