I thought temporary information like closures of paths and roads were good to put on the map, if nothing else to allow routing to avoid them. The water I agree is likely to be a bit inaccurate and isn't going to help with the routing, but like a road, those areas will be wet for quite some time (weeks to months), so as long as the person doing it keeps it relatively up to date, I guess there is no real problem. The real problem comes when its not maintained. > Date: Thu, 6 Feb 2014 00:24:31 +0000 > From: dave...@madasafish.com > To: talk-GB@openstreetmap.org > Subject: [Talk-GB] Somerset Levels Flooding > > Hi > > About a week ago user Jestr88 added large areas tagged natural=water; > name=flooding. to indicate the flooded areas on the Somerset levels. > > http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/258412163 > > Apart from the inaccuracy of these (water levels vary hourly) I thought > temporary information was frowned upon.
