Uk:Tag:water=river

Покрита водою зона річки, що використовується з natural=water. Має містити waterway=river всередині.

There are multiple tagging systems in use for tagging river areas.

The OpenStreetMap community has not achieved a consensus on which tagging scheme is preferred. water=river Статус: затверджений Used with natural=water waterway=riverbank Статус: не рекомендований

Як позначати

Намалюйте контур річки і додайте natural=water + water=river.

Для довгих річок територія повинна бути розділена на кілька сегментів керованого розміру (Area 1 та Area 2 на зображенні нижче).

Крім того, шлях, позначений як waterway=river, повинен бути намальований у напрямку течії річки (way 4 на зображенні). Усі теґи річки (наприклад, name=* та інші додаткові теґи) повинні бути додані до цієї центральної лінії.

More information on river area mapping can be found under waterway=riverbank.

Islands

To map islands in a river you can use a multipolygon relation and the island and the main riverbank should be included in the relation. The main riverbank way (way 1 in image) will have the role 'outer' and the way for the island (way 2 in image) will have the role 'inner'.

Areas intermittently covered by water

Wetlands

These areas can be flooded during high water level and are covered by plants when the water level is low. Tag such areas as natural=wetland + wetland=marsh;swamp;reedbed. Do not double tag or overlay with duplicate area of water=river or natural=water as the definition of wetland indicates occasional cover with river water.

Areas without vegetation

Some areas of river do not support growth of plants, but the surface of the riverbed can become exposed during low water levels. Some people tag these with surface=* e.g.surface=mud;gravel;rock in combination with natural=water + water=river + intermittent=yes. (Similar to tagging of natural=shoal or wetland=tidalflat)

In addition, there are past proposals with smaller count of uses: Proposed features/Water cover, Proposed features/waterway=riverbed

Tagged objects distribution

Alternative

The area of the river is tagged with waterway=riverbank alone - that tagging is slightly less common
