We just finished a trekking trip in the mountains in the south of France. As the area was arid, it was important to know where we could expect water. I would have liked to know which creeks were seasonal and which flow year-round. We came across many streams running water, but not shown on Osmand, and a few shown on Osmand but dried up. Perhaps the perenneal stream are shown different from the seasonal ones. If so, I haven't figured out the difference, because I didn't find a legend either.
There were quite a few water points on our path. These were usually captured from a spring for watering the cattle. These water points are marked as tap icons on Osmand, but only when zoomed in to 50 meters of more. At this scale it is hard to plan how much to fill up our water bottles. I suggest : 1. Adding water-points to the list of POIs that are shown even when zooming out. 2. Adding a legend for the elements visible on the screen at the current zoom level (maybe as a link in the top right corner of the screen). 3. If possible, distinguish between seasonal and year-round streams. Ap Pieters -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "OsmAnd" group.
