Thanks Phil, yes, this works fine on individual relations but I was hoping to find a tool that works across much larger areas, statewide preferably. I’ve done a series of overpass queries across Vic for all waterways with river in their name, including things like find all river ways that are in relations, those that aren’t in relations, overlaying waterway ways and relations in different colors, and more, each of which has been useful. The most common issues were probably relations that were shorter than named ways, and to a lesser extent, relations that included sections of other rivers or creeks (esp in headwaters but also some flotsam and jetsam). I’ve found the latter by looking for strange color patterns in the overpass outputs, but I’m sure I’ve missed lots. Just as I was about to close the laptop today I found the example below (which I’ll fix next time) where the relation for the Thomson River follows another creek for a long stretch, just west of Heyfield. If there was a way to search for all relations that contains ways with a different name, it’d be fantastic. Thanks again, Ian
