Hi, QGis and OpenJUMP have native PostGIS drivers so there is no need to import data into those but you can do all database queries directly from the user interface. You can also edit the osm2pgsql defaults to import tags which are not imported with standard settins. I believe this could solve also your other problem with shorelines. Add tag natural=coastline in the list of features to be imported and you should have no need to play with the shapefiles any longer. If you still want to create shapefiles from PostGIS, then ogr2ogr, open source alternative for the famous FME program, is your tool, . Only thing that it is missing is a driver for reading osm xml format directly. -Jukka- _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
