I'm not an expert on this, but my feeling is that the river disappears for a period of time, while the water isn't falling in height. So you'd have river -> reservoir -> river. When the river hits the nominal level of the reservoir, it stops. When the water flows out of the reservoir over the dam, it becomes a river again. -- Russ Nelson - http://community.cloudmade.com/blog - http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:RussNelson [email protected] - Twitter: Russ_OSM - http://openstreetmap.org/user/RussNelson _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
