I think using it for pipes and waterways is a good thing, especially when used with the way's inherent direction. There are pipes, canals, and other waterways where both directions occur, but like the incline tag, it is best to specify what direction the way's inherent direction implies in

Hello, there. I'm drafting a proposal concerning some waterways whose flow regularly changes direction, which happens near some sinkholes named estavelles, which drain or feed water according to the aquifer level. I would consequently propose a way to map it, but it should be consistent with

It seems that oneway:flow=yes|no is extensively used in Florida and oneway:flow=yes appears on most of the length of the Missisippi. I suppose it's used in the same sense as you want to use your proposed tag On 7 September 2015 at 17:29, David Marchal wrote: > Hello, there. > >

I am need of a tag for this for many waterways near the sea here, as there waterflow is controlled by gates or is tidal or is both. I like flow_direction. However it's a tricky business. Take the river Thames, which can be tidal up to London, depending on tides (and wind). But I would be
