Re: [OSM-talk] Update of world_boundaries-spherical?

2011-11-11 Thread Michael Krämer

I guess the version of Natural Earth used by the rendering server is
out of date, because the latest version does contain South Sudan.


Thanks for the insight and information.

Any I idea how to change, where to log, or whom to contact about this?

Possibly opening a ticket in the 'mapnik' component of the OSM Trac:
http://trac.openstreetmap.org/query?component=mapnik

I'm not sure if there's a more appropriate place or who to contact.

[OSM-talk] Update of world_boundaries-spherical?

2011-11-10 Thread Michael Krämer
Hello,

I just noticed the border between Sudan and South Sudan not being
rendered in Mapnik at zoom levels 1 to 3. At zoom level 3 the name
South Sudan shows up but the border is missing ([1]).

After doing quite some searching I guess the problem might be a
missing update of world_boundaries-spherical.tgz. The file available
online [2] as documented in the wiki seems to be from 2008.

So I assume that other than the coastline file this file is not
automatically updated. Honestly that would be perfectly reasonable as
changes to borders visible at zoom level 3 and above rarely occur. But
as we had one of these rare occasions with South Sudan it seems to be
about time to update the file. Unfortunately I couldn't find out how
this update could be triggered.

Boundaries at these zoom levels actually come from Natural Earth[1].As
far as I know (from looking at the stylesheet[2])
theworld_boundaries-spherical.tgz file is not used.
I guess the version of Natural Earth used by the rendering server
isout of date, because the latest version does contain South Sudan.

...woops, it seems something decided to rearrange all my newlines.
Hopefully this is more readable:
