I realized it is not easy to make a distinction between canal and
aqueduct, but we may assume that the latter is usually for drinking
water or irrigation of small areas of land. Everything dealing with
navigation, flood protection or vast area
Wow, I never heard of qanats.

so there is no problems with changing those.

Hi,

I'm not sure whether this should have its own tag; how different is it

This makes sense. It
man_made=pipeline, pipeline=qanat? This is similar to how the aqueduct
page proposes to tag modern aqueducts, but qanats seem a distinct type of
structure from aqueducts due to the vertical wells. (And I agree with
John's point that it is not really like a pipeline, but I'd argue that OSM

On the canal wiki article http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Canal it
says An artificial open waterway used for transportation, waterpower, or

However it might create confusion with already existing bridge=aqueduct.

Hi,
I've just created a proposal page about tagging qanats:

I hope you will help me to find a good way of mapping these features
little known in western world :)
Cheers,
