I am not going to start a discussion here on the semantics of terms like 'ocean', 'riverbank', 'coast' or similar which are inherently culture specific and political. So i repeat my request: could you formulate a generic rule for coastline placement similar to what i formulated in https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_Features/Coastline-River_transit_placement that (a) allows for the coastline placement you favor in case of the Rio de la Plata (b) is based on verifiable physical geography criteria that can practically be checked by mappers and (c) that is compatible to most of the current coastline placements at river mouths around the world? If you can do that we can try to have a productive discussion without delving into the swamp of politics and cultural differences and maybe can find a consensus position that everyone can be satisfied with. -- Christoph Hormann http://www.imagico.de/ _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
