How would you map American "streamlet", "brook", "creek" and "river"
to the two generic "stream" and "river" in OSM?
Currently they are just putting in the name field, so the only ways to
fide all "brooks" is by searching the name fields which is not a
proper database approach.

And what is the definition of them? How are they different?

I think these are really not too meaningful names, so searching in names
seems to be proper if you want to find them. The question is - what for,
what will it mean?


Those are in the name field as those are part of their names.

They are not some technical description of the waterway.


Is there a professional differentiation between these terms?
