</span> So after a new scheme to tag X is introduced we have two schemes<br>

</span> Water proposal tried to change the tagging:<br>
landuse=reservoir => natural=water|water=reservoir<br></blockquote><div><br><br></div><div>that's really different, one is an attribute about the usage of land, the other is a feature for where there is actually water.<br><br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
And in general all water landuse=x => natural=water|water=x (basin, pond etc.)<br>
waterway=riverbank => natural=water|water=riverbank<br></blockquote><div><br><br></div><div>yes, the way riverbank was used in OSM is replaced by natural=water, water=riverbank seems a bad tag indeed, if still used for the actual river area and not for the riverbank alone.<br><br></div><div> <span class=""></span><br><span class=""></span></div>Cheers,<br></div><div class="gmail_quote">Martin<br></div></div></div>
