Hello Pavel!

Thank you for your suggestion. We will try to take it into account. The 
current version of styles is not completed yet and has a lot of faults. 
Later we are going to improve styling and work on better label placement 
capabilities as well.


Best regards,
Max

Dear all,

Maxim Rylov just has released the new second version of the admin
layer with enhanced scale-dependent styling  labeling. It uses
data from both ways and relations and handels missing tags in ways
through using admin_level.
Still experimental, but...
Future enhancements may include also the visualization of problems
or errors with respect to  boundaries in OSM.
The map layer is also a test for a new label placement algorithm
that can place labels on both sides of a linestring. This map adds
to Maxim's Roads, Semintransparent and Hillshade layers at
OpenMapSurfer.

Alexander,

This is excellent, thanks!

Can you say how often the admin boundaries layer will be updated? I have 
been doing quite a bit of work on them (in Kent, UK) recently and the 
changes are not showing up yet.

I don't know if it relates, but a lot of Kent boundaries seem to
have an inconsistent use of roles (some ways use them, some don't):

2012-06-11 Thread Colin Smale

Hi Ed,

Yep, that's me. I was taking shortcuts by not including the role if the 
relation describes a simple polygon (as most do) as the role defaults to 
outer anyway. But I admit to being inconsistent and will try to sort 
it out in the coming days. Glad to learn of your boundary analysis 
application by the way - thanks for that.


By the way, can I put in a plug for the OS OpenData Boundary Line 
downloads in individual GPX format which I have prepared? They are 
available from http://csmale.dev.openstreetmap.org/os_boundaryline/ . I 
am still working on the parish boundaries - there are 14460 of them. I 
will probably package them up by county in zip files.

Now it is not updatable. The layer is going to be updated every week.
At the moment there is a lag about 10 days. We are looking forward to a 
new planet dump to make database reimport. It is also planned to run new 
version of database on postgres x64 for windows. We hope that it works 
faster.
