Yes, it is. usage=* is the better documented variant for waterway=canal while service=* is more widely used. In documented values service=* is more focussed on the overall function of the canal as a whole while usage=* is more about the technical design and function of the particular part of the waterway. -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/ _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
