Yes, I have seen that. Because of that I had include the question. Nonetheless I think that it's redundant, as the existence of a group tag should make it clear that this is a group :) Streets, houses, what ever do it the same way. > What's the difference between way and area in this context? Wouldn't > area be a more natural way to describe an island? Naturally one would guess that the otline of an island is a closed way tagged as being a place of type island. Unfortunately that is not the case. Most often someone just defined a node somewhere on the island. So we have to be able to use both. But the requirement for the way is, that it has to be closed Cheers Hendrik -- Hendrik "BasicBaer" Voelker mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.nutrimatic.de/ It's easy to distract fat people.
