Yes, when we are talking of adding a commune, we are adding boundaries
into OSM. We are also making sure that we create the proper relations so
one way can be reused for a frontier between two communes.
We have broad data on higher administrative boundaries that we are
correcting as we progress in adding commune boundaries. We know in which
higher level boundaries commune are in. There are currently talks about
Spain and Italy boundaries on that ground. The data can be sometimes a
bit incorrect so we are verifying everything carefully.
