Hi Michael, I've no copy of your old method, but from what I recall this seems to be an improvement - metres in lieu of approximating degrees AND not having to close the line should both produce a better result. I especially like that more detail can be included as mapping proceeds.
Great work! Cheers, Paul. -----Original Message----- From: Michael Krämer Sent: 29 Sep 2012 13:58:42 GMT To: Talk-AU OSM,Ian Sergeant,Paul HAYDON Subject: News on national border Hi, unfortunately I noticed that the output from the process I had described was not really as good as I wanted it to be. So I did a bunch of refinements over the last couple of days and updated [1] accordingly. The key differences are the use of a projection to improve accuracy and using the tools in a different order to improve the geometry of the output. So now [2] shows the result I would personally suggest to upload as the national border.
