Now, if we can just get him to input to OSM in addition to Google, that would be nice. On a different note,(i.e, different thread if it goes anywhere) is OSM having the same problem as Google with disputed borders, e.g., India/Pakistan? I did a quick wiki search and didn't find a way to designate "disputed border". Such a designation would allow border mapping with an acknowledgement that there is a dispute, allowing mapping to proceed, (possibly with two disputed versions of the border mapped) without, at least, disputes among the mappers, possibly avoiding Google's problem. We had, until a few years ago, a similar (although less politically volatile as far as military action is concerned) situation on the northern border of my county. It was finally decided in an appellate court after the state Supreme Court refused to hear the case. For, 150 years, nobody cared, but when a tax base started building there, things changed. -- Randy _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
