I'm uploading the coastline_c files to http://pnorman.dev.openstreetmap.org/coastlines/, these are unsplit however I do not believe they are areas, just lines. They should take a couple hours to upload. You'll also need to reproject them with ogr2ogr or another tool. If these aren't what you need it'll either take coastcheck source modifications or maybe some tool can merge overlapping areas in the shapefiles. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
