Where it runs
The centre of the water as OpenStreetMap draws it, centrelines, not banks, and not every reach carries water year-round. The faint outlines are suburbs.

The map also records “Ōpouira”, the page answers to all of them.
It’s the centreline, the middle of the water as mapped on OpenStreetMap, not its banks. A line says where it runs, not how wide it is or whether it carries water today.
The record behind this
The line is OpenStreetMap’s, every named way tagged river, stream, drain or canal inside the city boundary, merged by name (ODbL). A line says where a waterway runs, not how wide it is; the live gauges are instruments, kept on /rivers.
