The current border data in Italy was almost completely imported by Simone Cortesi from the Italian agency of statistics (ISTAT). More information can be found here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Italian_Borders in the meantime this data was corrected and improved where better data was available. According to the wiki article above, the current data at import time was based on maps 1:5000 (in builtup areas) and 1:25000 (for the rest). cheers, Martin PS: the current data is not completely perfect, indeed it seems in some places where the data was untouched since the import that there is a constant offset (e.g. look here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=42.0784&lon=12.5899&zoom=14&layers=M ), but I can't tell you details on the border to Switzerland. _______________________________________________ Talk-it mailing list Talk-it@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-it
