| Ordnance Survey Area        | Link created using OS large-scale inland and tidal water area features (representing a watercourse greater than 1m wide in urban areas, 2m wide in rural areas and 5m wide in moorland areas). |
| Ordnance Survey Inferred    | Link created in an inferred alignment (usually for culverts and tunnels).                                                                                                                      |
| Ordnance Survey Line        | Link created using OS large-scale single water feature lines (representing a watercourse less than 1m wide in urban areas, 2m wide in rural areas and 5m wide in moorland areas).              |

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.os.uk/osngd/code-lists/code-lists-overview/waterlinkgeometrysourcevalue.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
