Note that the GRB data mentions it's "voorlopig", and often, the data shows
an offset from parcel boundaries. At those places, I would expect the
boundaries to follow parcel boundaries (and I expect parcel boundaries to
be of better quality).

Well, it depends on your definition of vastly :)
(I haven't looked at the size of the differences yet)
I was talking about municipal borders (admin_level=8), postal codes as in
your example are a wholly different beast, one I wouldn't want to tackle
right now.
But yes, they have a lot of things
Hi,
I'm not sure they can be vastly improved, it probably depends a lot on
what boundary.
In that understanding that there is lot's of stuff attached to those
boundaries that shouldn't be there. So when you are working to improve
boundaries, you'll need to address plenty of those cases, and
RIP Marc.
So I understand the geometry of the municipal boundaries could be vastly
improved.
I'm guessing the easiest workflow would be to load just the geometry of the
municipalities and just the OSM municipalities in JOSM, then merge the
nodes of the OSM municipalities to the external data.

).
Zelf heb ik ook de grenzen leren mappen van Marc, en heb ik een groot deel
van de West-Vlaamse grenzen gemapt.
Personally for Flanders I wouldn't worry to much. Lets wait maybe a a year or 2
to get the municipals time to correct/update their borders in AGIV (GRB).
But form the things I compared, I found the current borders to be are rather
good.
I'm going to assume they are rather old too. As such they
Hi,
I got a question about municipal boundaries in Belgium. I had a look here
[1], but it seems to be lacking detailed information about how this data
was added to OSM and what the source is. I do remember seeing some info
about this, but we should probably have a bit more formal documentation,
