Map of water taps to fill bottles
Are there any maps of taps where I can fill my water bottles (bidons) on long rides. I live in Scotland, but would be glad to learn of the existence of such resources worldwide.

Openstreetmap with the cycle layer certainly shows some here's one
I was very grateful for in the French Alps. OSM not complete but it's open source so you can improve it (I haven't added any taps, but I have added bike parking). This is a good approach, as it also shows cafes and shops where you should be able to buy water if there's no tap (flipping between the "standard" and "cycling" layers can show more facilities).
In the UK, the cafes on Cafe Network will almost all be very willing to fill bottles for customers - I normally plan on a cafe stop every few hours and take the opportunity then. Pubs and coffee shops generally will too.

In fact reviewing OSM for this prompted me to add a missing cafe on the same ride I stopped at that spring/fountain/tap

In the USA free tap water is virtually universal, and I was able to fill up my water bottles at any fast food restaurant and convenience store I stopped at, all over the country. A switch on most restaurant soda fountains will dispense plain tap water. I also filled up at local parks and roadside rest areas.

In the USA free tap water is virtually universal, and I was able to fill up my water bottles at any fast food restaurant and convenience store I stopped at, all over the country. A switch on most restaurant soda fountains will dispense plain tap water. I also filled up at local parks and roadside rest areas.
