Hi all, I've notice that waterway=artificial is currently used more than 16k times. https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/waterway=artificial
This value doesn't appear to be documented, does someone know what is its real meaning please? Only this DataItem is availabe : https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Item:Q19211 Efforts has been made to distinguish open flow and pipe flow waterways and waterway=artificial may fit in both regimes. It's an occasion to see if a more precise value is missing to cover those situations. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Waterways#Artificial_waterways:_pressurised_vs_Open-flow_Waterways https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:waterway#Values Many objects are located in an area in the US, like this one : https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/46314476 It seems that waterway=river would be more suitable for this one. All the best François
