Tricky - it appears to be a rule that all the famous sea caves are
accessible by foot at low tide (there's probably a geological reason, like
why sea cliffs tend to have a ledge below exposed at low tide). That said,
some sea arches have inward-sloping sides - e.g. Stair Hole

Good point. Do you know of one? Let's have a look at how the OS deal
with it.

Is this necessarily the case?

Hi,
Great!
Don't worry about having "too many nodes" - the OS data is already
generalised a bit (I think they target 1:1) so it could be a lot
"worse". I spend a lot of time curating the admin boundaries;
occasionally I will update a bit of coastline from OS data when I am "in
the area".
You'll probably get comments about import guidelines but I did similar for
Tendring about 9 years ago before there were any. I think your use of the word
import in this scenario may be misleading as you're not bulk importing the
whole coastline but selectively improving sections of coastline by
Hi,
I've recently done an import of coastline data from OS VectorMap into OSM
around The Wash. I did this because I'm interested in coastal regions and
the coastline was a complete mess in that area. I'm sure it's similar in
other parts of GB as well.
The mess often happens because mappers don't
Thanks both
