That would be me :)



Maybe thats why I couldn't find a possibly guilty coastlines at the
region underwater.


We need to wait now.


One more¹ reason to reprocess the coastline shapefile.


I've been doing a lot of tidying up coastline data throughout the world in 
the last month, and although I'm pretty sure that I have not created any 
further errors, some of the areas which needed tidying were quite complex, 
and an error or two may have crept in.


I thought I'd wait till the next set of the coastline error checker files 
[1] which should be next week, check if there are no major problems, and 
then suggest to the sys admins that the coastline shapefiles be updated.


It would be a pity to update the shapefiles now to fix the issue in 
Colombia, only for issues to appear elsewhere on the map.


If I had the bandwidth I'd download the planet file and produce the error 
checker files myself, but I'm afraid its not really practical for me to do 
that.

[OSM-talk] Big Blue Something in Colombia

2012-01-23 Thread malenki

really messed up river in the west of it the and some other minor stuff
in that region the tiles remain blue.
Could someone more experienced have a look, please?
