Class eleven is for drinking water like your example below.
Class 15 is fro flodding like my example.

They define an area like a national reserve or park but also low
priority protections. Please think of a flooding area which primary
landuse might be forest or meadow.

So the water is tagged with water=reservoir (access=no) and we need a
landuse value for the primary area around it. I do not like
reservoir_protection though. Can we find a different name as I was
thinking about protected areas. Maybe something simple like
reservoir_ground or _area.
