Hello, thanks for that hint.
Right, the chosen projection won't work around the poles, i don't expect that. In the call to gdalwarp i gave the source projection (EPSG:4326 or WGS84) and as target projection i gave the projection used in osm.xml. But the result is not what i expected and i also can't explain it.
