Spring areas?

You're proposing single dots for springs, but a lot of rivers emerge in bigger fields: lots of small places where water comes out of the ground, like tens of small springs in a swampy area that merge to one small river. That area is still seen as one spring, but it can't really be pinpointed as one dot... --Eimai 11:17, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Please create tags for additional information you mentioned, they are IMHO very valuable. Also it should be possible to tag whether the spring is covered (http://hiking.sk/dev/gallery/photos/68b11d66ca7334bf91b74cd2dcb300b6.jpg). --*Martin*, 27 October 2010

spring water collector

I am unsure about the correct term... Some springs are cased in concrete, and the water is supplied to some drinking water network. Standing in front of the spring, you can hear the noise of the water, but you can't see it, touch it, or drink it. How are we supposed to tag this kind of springs?
