monitoring:water_level=* is used to indicate if a man_made=monitoring_station measures the surface level of a water body such as a river, stream, canal, lake, or tidal area. Governments and utility companies often track water levels to aid in maritime navigation, flood prediction, water management, and other purposes. For the equivalent groundwater tag see monitoring:groundwater_level=*.
