My opinion on the subject; I agree that the ground principle should be followed, and the 3 nautical miles should be indicated and maintained as read only by OSM. I don't know how to do this but with some help from Gibraltar Government GIS project (http://www.geoportal.gov.gi/webviewer/) someone should be able to help me.
Also if someone has a premium account on http://www.marinetraffic.com should be able to prove the ground principle by checking this vessels routes: -SIR ADRIAN JOHNS (https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/details/ships/236112042/vessel:SIR%20ADRIAN%20JOHNS) -RN HMS SCIMITAR P284 (https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/details/ships/shipid:182849/mmsi:232002929/imo:0/vessel:RN_HMS_SCIMITAR_P284 ) they are GIB and UK boats and I'm sure they will not mess around in Spanish waters On 4/7/2015 1:07 PM, Colin Smale wrote: >* As you will have noticed by now, it's complicated.
