That's where I'm confused, because if I understand correctly in hydrology it's an area from which the rain water drains into a river or lake, in that case what is this doing in landuse? This should be imho marked with boundary tag, furthermore mapnik renders this as a water (blue areas). What the heck is this tag for? Do we need it? And the rest of water tags is also in conflict with common sense, which tells me that the natural=water should be for lakes and non man-made ponds, the landuse=reservoir for all of the man-made bodies of water. But the wiki page [1] says something different. [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:natural%3Dwater Regards, Petr Morávek
