Hi Martin & Hendrik, Nowadays, undergound power lines are part of large electric systems and are as important as aerial ones.
Cartography them (and make data free on OSM) is a good way to bring reliable information about these contiental electric systems. Moreover, some projects didn't wait for me to get in business. The aim of my proposal is to refine the tagging model, not to create new for the moment. There're many ways to get data about underground lines and the best is still to watch the digging works and take photos.
