We do have same approach with power lines or highway You won't tag an actual motorway highway=motorway;service;residential for the reason it leads to residential or service highways at its end. 2) Irrigation=yes > > With this tag, it would be possible to also use "drainage=yes", so a > canal used for both drainage and irrigation could be "waterway=canal" > + "irrigation=yes" + "drainage=yes" - this leads to using an extra > tag, but doesn't require any semicolon-separated values. > This shouldn't occur according to my comment upside. usage values should not intersect with each others, I think there is no need of yes/no values for it. Feel free to give any example where it doesn't work. All the best François
