Greg, I think you have the tags right but I'd rather see the
waterway and highway mapped as separate ways, even if they
superimpose. While they may be in the same place, they are different
things. If the wadi is like what we see here in Oz, its probably
pretty wide and may be best mapped as an area rather than a line,
that way, the highway way would be more distinguishable. And we need
be realistic about their position and accept they move.<br>
