Openstreetmap question.. You want to import the whole planet, but in sections? Just use osm2pgsql to import the whole planet and then select sections from the postgis database, initial import is going to be slower but keeping it uptodate is going to be easy. Alternatively import a bigger area than what you need and do the clipping in postgis. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
