No, I mentioned that we were about to create the baseline from this statute, and whilst still researching which was the system the coordinates, someone else imported the boundaries from a different official site (European Environment Agency, an agency of the European Union): http://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/data/maritime-boundaries and AFAIK nobody then checked if those were corresponding to the official Italian version (I guess everyone was asuming they were correct, as they were "official"). cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
