We have a dyke tag because the levees do not block the flow of the river. They
prevent it from flooding out of the path the river is already flowing.

The thing I am tagging is not a dam. It is a series of flood basins, one of
which is a "reservoir". They are made by levees that surround the rivers, but
in a very complicated way. They eventually return all the water back to the
river, shortly after it is captured.

I suppose waterway=weir plus intermittent=yes would describe it, but I
don't think that's as good as a specific spillway tag.

I've seen these tagged as waterway=drain which is close but agree that
waterway=spillway is better. Would be
Ah yea, emergency=yes is bad.
3 questions:
- mapping levees/dykes with additional area extent tags (like river+ riverbank)
- mapping spillways in a similar fashion.
- mapping levee control gates (buried in the levee)

Weir does not seem appropriate for this type of thing. There is a tag,
waterway=spillway, that seems like a good fit - 81 uses so far.
You could also add emergency=yes to the above or create a new tag,
emergency=spillway

How do you tag an emergency spillway?
I am tagging a giant flood control reservoir in my region. The “lake” is
surrounded by giant man-made embankments on all sides, surrounded by an
additional set of embankments, with gates to let the water out. There is no
dam per se, because there is ~200
