I've mapped them in the past as a single centreline, rather than trying to map the width, the width can always be tagged as natural=grass area... ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
Re: [talk-au] Floodways ?
Yes, but how would you map them? The ones at Narellan are about 50 metres wide, and I know of others that are wider. Too wide for a single line like a concrete drain.

Re: [talk-au] Floodways ?
I've used waterway=drain for some of the other waterways in this area - scroll north a bit from Franc's map to see the drain that runs between Dunn Street and Topham Road. That's a real drain - even looks like the picture in the Wiki. But I assume Franc is referring to the large grassed area between the blocks of houses. They don't look like drains at all. And they are very common in the Macarthur region.

Hi, What if anything have people been using to map 'floodways', i.e channels that are design to retain water in high rainfall times., e.g http://www.nearmap.com/?ll=-34.044061,150.747024&z=19&t=k&nmd=20091229 cheers -- Franc ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
