South Africa Waterways (OpenStreetMap Export)

Water resources and water infrastructure in South Africa including rivers, lakes, boreholes, wells and water points. Use this layer for water access analysis, WASH programme planning, drought monitoring, flood risk assessment, and water resource management.

Water features across the area: rivers, streams, canals, lakes, ponds, and water bodies tagged with `waterway`, `water`, or `natural=water`. Useful for flood-risk modelling, watershed analysis, and environmental basemap context. Coverage reflects where volunteer mappers have been active. Urban areas are usually well represented, remote areas may be sparse. Cross-check critical decisions with local field knowledge. - Source: OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map - Tags: waterway, water, natural - Part of the country exports on HDX by HOT
