The US national border with Canada is all tagged with admin_level=4, border_type=state, border=administrative... It also has the left/right countries (at least the bit I looked at in WA did).
How should state borders that are also national borders be tagged? Does setting admin_level=2 fix the whole problem? As you can see, they're not currently visible at low zooms: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=48.83&lon=-118.46&zoom=7&layers=B00FF Beau On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 1:21 PM, Steve Chilton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The latest mapnik stylesheet has the National borders moved from coming in > at z10 to coming in at z7.
