We also show amenity=fountain.
there’s also waterway=water_point and there are the drinking_water and
drinkable properties. And man_made=water_tank, landuse=reservoir and there’s
bottled water of course.
Yeah, I know that one can catch a water using flat surface on the
desert, but a desert is not a "water source type" IMO. I've tried to not
include every possible water form on Earth just becuse it could be used
as a water source - just like I wouldn't mention railways when talking
about foot paths, even if it's possible to go along the rail track...
waterway=water_point would be interesting type (amenity=water_point
marine twin), but currently it has only 238 uses and that's something to
be shown rather on specialized maps (like OpenSeaMap).
I wouldn’t show man_made=water_tap because it’s either also drinking water, or
there’s not much interest in showing it in this general purpose map. I would
consider showing wells, because some of them are significant, and would tend to
not include water points in the general map (or only at zoom 20+)
It was mentioned many times that we care about drinking water, however I
think it's too narrow point of view - washing, watering the garden or
using for the car engine cooling can be also important, especially in
the outdoor.
