What I have tended to do around the beaches of Gower is to mark the non-tidal bit of the beach and the tidal bit as separate polygons, setting a "waterway=tidal" tag on the tidal bit. e.g. http://osm.org/go/euMTH1gJ--?layers=B000FTTT The Worm's Head tidal causeway is the same: http://osm.org/go/euG5vJYH-?layers=B000FTTT Of course, it currently renders as beach, so some tweaks to the Mapnik template might be nice. > Is there some way to place brake waters, onto the map, (ie wooden > structures that stop the sand/pebbles moving down the beech) http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Harbour suggests man_made=breakwater Also see http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Breakwater - Steve xmpp:[email protected] sip:[email protected] http://www.nexusuk.org/ Servatis a periculum, servatis a maleficum - Whisper, Evanescence _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
