Problem seems to come from a few different things - non-closed coastline polygons, coastline direction changes, points where rivers join sea/coastline etc. There's a lot of chat on the mkg-map dev list over the last 6 months or so regarding this. Matt ------- Thanks Matt. Without 'sea polygons' it'll remain a complete mess for Garmin displays. We need OSM to work in the 'real world' to accelerate uptake. Hopefully the --generate-sea- switch comes good in Mkgmap. Until then ..... John k PS The OsmAustralia downloads appear stuck at the 26/1 at 22b. Happy Australia Day. :) _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
