The name is the best way I've found and is in fact what I'm using (https://github.com/pnorman/ogr2osm-translations/blob/69434ec55a48e9e4858ef3 5f2489949b2020e527/us_nhd.py#L234) but it's not 100% No way is perhaps a bit strong, no fully reliable way would be more accurate. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
