This map is shows Vienna‘s vaulted rivers as well as main sewerage canals and surface waters. Many of the canals carry names of the streets they are running below.I‘ve combined many different data layers and sources, giving an accurate overview over the topic. Data-Sources

Vienna‘s (hidden) WatersMost of Vienna‘s waters run subterranean nowadays, pooled in sewerage canals. In most cases the vaulting has been done as flooding prevention and to re-gain space for urban development in the late 19th and early 20th century. As knowledge about their original paths is fading, a few waters located more peripheral, that are still on the surface, enjoy rising popularity as recreation areas. In this map, I‘m showcasing the grid of aboveground waters, canalized waters and sewerage canals of Vienna, focusing on West-Vienna.
