Do you have a feel for how to resolve interfaces between regions where we'd have to switch from vmap1 to vmap0? Suggestion: make a tile once with vmap1 and once with vmap0, and make available for dl, so people can give some input on fps hit? Do the current rivercourses come from vmap0? I'm a bit confused at this point about what comes from vmap0 and what comes from GSHHS.
