[Tagging] man_made=pipeline - is onewayness implied?

[Peter Wendorff]

Hi,
so you would call the Mittellandkanal, connecting Elbe and Weser in
Germany a lake?

I agree with Bulwersator. A canal does not necessarily have a flow
direction. It may be built for water transport (then it might have one),
it may be built inclining - indicating a "natural" flow. It may even
have alternating flow when water is taken out on either side depending
on weather or something like that.

But it's definitly not a lake just because there's no flow direction.

regards
Peter
