Armidale gets its creek

Publicât di macAlba ai 26 January 2008 par English.

Added a few more lanes but, more importantly, I voluntarily gave myself squinty eyes and traced Dumaresq Creek from a blurry Landsat low-resolution image. Armidale now has its creek bisecting the town, flowing north-west to south-east. (Osmarender only at this stage).

I not sure how to tag the waterway, though. It's bigger than a waterway=stream, and not as grand as a waterway=river. In Australian parlance, it's a creek. It doesn't have permanent flow.

Anyway, for the time being, "stream" will be fine.

Hi!

I've got the same problem with rivers and streams. You may use the width or estimated-width tag to insert correct data. The width doesn't get into the rendering yet, but maybe we're lucky and some day we will be able to see those creeks as they should look...
