I would add that, according to the wiki (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:waterway%3Dwadi), waterway=wadi has been deprecated and should be replaced with waterway=stream or waterway=river, anyway with intermittent=yes. Apart from that, I agree with 61sundowner: the track and the waterway should be mapped separately, each with their own path.

Within most sandy bottomed wadi’s is at least one track (typically 4wd). The exact location of the track within the wadi will change due to occasional flooding events. I’ve read the discussion summary at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:waterway%3Dwadi but I’m still not clear exactly how to tag this feature? It seems: - waterway=wadi - intermittent=yes is ok. But how to indicate can be vehicle track? Is it ok to mark a track in the “rough” vicinity (i.e.: the track path will change between flooding events)? Should the wadi “line” be marked in the centre between the edges? Would these tags be ok for a: “sandy bottomed wadi; 4wd only" waterway = wadi intermittent = yes highway = track tracktype = grade4 4wd_only = yes surface = unpaved Suggestions welcome. In an ideal world; the wadi would be a way along the lowest path - where water would first flow. the track would be a separate way For less work a mapper would combine these into one way ... that makes rendering harder. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
