Hello everyone,
I've been mapping the Little Colorado River, which, despite
its name, is rather large, bank to bank. When it's not encased in a
canyon--such as when it gets close to joining the big Colorado--it's
a typical Western U.S. river: a quarter-mile wide and a foot deep.
So, in the places where it is wide, I've been mapping it as two
riverbanks. However, it sometimes renders as a large area of
water, covering places that are not under water.
I know we are not supposed to map for rendering, but this
result makes me think that I am doing something wrong.
So, what is the correct way to handle
waterway=riverbank? Do we join the two banks from time to time (as I
have done to try to correct the problem)?
The area I have mapped is in northern Arizona, around the
towns of Cameron and Winslow.
Thanks in advance for your help.
