<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Utilities seems a bit vague to me. Over here water, gas, telephony and sewage are always underground, mostly under the sidewalk and sewage under the street. Electricity usually is, except in rural areas.<br>
Cable distribution follows the 'façades' of the houses and then there is the cable of the street lights which does the same in my street.<br><br></div>If we're going to be mapping all that, it may be interesting to indicate whether sewage is already split in water that fell from the sky and actual sewage...<br>

</blockquote></div><br><br><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra">-1, IMHO you should only tag utilities=underground if you know that the wires are underground in this street (IF you want to tag this at all and in this way). If you only can see that there are no overhead wires present that's not sufficient. <br>
