Description
From the NHD import we have ten thousands of nodes with waterway=dam or landuse=reservoir. These should be redrawn as areas.
According to Taginfo we still have 54.000 dam nodes and 62.000 reservoir nodes. Despite this is big task I think we should start it.
Missing US level crossing was also quite big and Jochen Topfs old style multipolygons challenge even started with 250.000 objects.
