Potential Path Issues

[sdl60660]

I've noticed a couple of naming issues where features are over-grouped or over-extended at the end of paths, potentially related to these paths running through numerous large inland features? Not sure if the terminal flag/stream level properties might be impacted by the path running through something like the Great Lakes?

The River Runner tool now overrides names on flowlines inside of inland features, so it might be a little easier to see with on the IoW plots:

• Boundary Waters to Hudson Bay (thinks that the whole path is made up of Rainy River or the Red River): River Runner Path
• Great Lakes (thinks that everything past Huron is part of the Detroit River): River Runner Path

I think a similar thing is happening here, in Norway, involving a large inland lake, but could be wrong: path

I think I see a similar issue here in the Netherlands (which is, admittedly, designed to foil tools like this). The Amstel river might as well not exist, a “droplet placement” on the river itself will jump elsewhere.

There is also an overall issue that the application currently uses a bounding box search around a point click and choosing an arbitrary flow path within to start from. A future version of this will be more rigorous and be based on actual catchments
