I don't understand and I can't comment the "geo" things (which file, which projections?) but the PicLayer is a method I use and it works fine. > Please comment on the method and the result As to the result, compare Muizen <http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/3359778> and, for example, Dolembreux <http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/2792257>.
* in Belgium, we usually include the key subarea <relation> in the parent reation as you can see in Sprimont <http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/2413544> and Mechelen (arr.) <http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/2524403> * in Belgium, as in many other counties, we usually add an admin_centre, as well as a name on the borders, which makes it very easy to travel from a municipality to the next (click on Esneux — Dolembreux (180863558) <http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/180863558> and you're one click away from "Part of Relation Esneux (2417895) <http://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/2417895> (as outer)". Note that character — is not - nor --. o Node Dolembreux (860697753) <http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/860697753> as admin_centre o Way Chaudfontaine — Dolembreux (182800464) <http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/182800464> as outer o Way Esneux — Dolembreux (180863558) <http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/180863558> as outer o Way Sprimont — Dolembreux (198248587) <http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/198248587> as outer o Way Dolembreux — Gomzé-Andoumont (198186768) <http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/198186768> as outer * a few more tags are usually used, compare. Not easy to avoid forgetting something, but after you've made one hundred of them, it's like a "pater noster" ;-) In Belgium, we usually don't write things like this in the wiki. We repeat them in e-mail over and over again. Cheers, André.
